6th Grade Class Projector Project

Funded Apr 12, 2015

Thank you so much for your generous donations and support for this project! We could not have done it without you! Technology is such an integral part of our world, and it only makes sense to also integrate technology into education and instruction. When our projector broke the students were really disappointed that we would no longer be able to view PowerPoint presentations, watch video clips, or look up information as a class. When the students walked into class and saw that the new projector had arrived they were all very excited! They were eager to use it, and immediately began commenting on how bright and clear the picture was. Since the new projector arrived we have used it to interactively study ancient Mesopotamian maps, watch video clips on the building of the Pyramids of Giza, take notes from PowerPoint presentations, and use Quizlet as a class. Today we were able to look up examples of severe drought pictures in California, drawing connections to the droughts experienced by ancient civilizations.

As you can see this projector has had a huge impact on my 6th grade social studies class, engaging them and enhancing their understanding through creating real world connections. Again, thank you so much!”

With gratitude,

Mrs. Doolin
