Mrs. Fong's Class Requests 3 More Chromebooks
Funded Mar 20, 2016It is my utmost pleasure to thank all the donors who help make it possible to provide my students with more technology by enhancing learning at school. The mix of more technology, guidance, and student motivation helped boost the confidence and creativity of every single student in my class. With the addition of the Chromebooks, it has provided quick at hand research and opportunities to continue technology learning outside the walls of the classroom. Some of the students call the Chromebooks the "treasures of our class".
The students really developed and learned the benefits of teamwork and belief in supporting a cause for their education. This project benefited them and allowed them to believe that there are others who would support their learning and in return they could do the same for others. My students have also continued to pridefully teach and share their knowledge and expertise with others students, their parents, and teachers in third grade.
The Chromebooks have also provided wonderful opportunities to compare different types of technology and uses of technology on different types of devices. In addition, all the student's typing skills have blossomed to become more quicker and accurate. Projects have become an endless subject with more technology available. My students welcome challenges now, rather than run from them. Overall, the students have taken learning to the next level and I can't wait to see what adventures they encounter in the future with technology.”
With gratitude,

Funded Dec 17, 2015Our 3 new Chromebooks have created more opportunities to have better access to technology in our classroom. We now have about 2-3 kids per one piece of technology. In addition, we have organized a system to equitably share the newer and faster technology. Furthermore, most kids can't wait for their turn at the 3 new Chromebooks that we've received. The 3 new Chromebooks have certainly motivated the kids to to research and apply their skills in using technology.
The students are most excited and amazed at the difference in speed that our 3 new Chromebooks work in comparison to the rest of our slow and outdated technology in the classroom. When the the Chromebooks are in use, they do not lag or freeze. Also, the Chromebooks allow the students to research quicker, which in return saves time. Most importantly, the Chromebooks have allowed all students to be creative with technology ideas to problem-solve and extend their learning. Our class is more than excited to be using updated technology.
With the presence of the 3 new Chromebooks, the students have already requested me to write another project for more Chromebooks. They have also shown a greater interest to their parents of how technology is necessary at home to supplement what is learned at school. Many of the students have also realized that typing skills are just as important to keep to with technology. My class and I are most thankful for our Chromebooks and all your future support in our learning as we move forward into the 21st century. WE LOVE OUR CHROMEBOOKS!”
