  • Learning at a Distance

    Funded Oct 23, 2020

    Thank you so much for helping our class! We are so thankful for the ipad and pencil. This has allowed us to keep track of our positive work, attendance, and assessments scores. It has been a positive addition to our virtual classroom and we couldn't have done it without you.

    We are so thankful for all of the support for our virtual classroom. We love being able to work together on the computer in our breakout rooms and to learn from our educational videos. Without our ipad and apple pencil we would not be able to accomplish all that we have this year. Thank you!”

    With gratitude,

    Mrs. Bennett

    This classroom project was brought to life by OshKosh B'gosh and 5 other donors.
  • An Apple iPad A Day

    Funded Oct 4, 2019

    We are so thankful for the Ipads you provided for our class. We are now able to listen to stories, learn about math concepts, and play learning related games to enhance our understanding. Our class is able to engage and focus using this technology and it has been a huge help in aiding the visual and kinesthetic learners in our class.

    In particular students love the ability to watch videos and stories that go along with what they are listening to. It has been a great way to encourage struggling readers. Thank you again for providing for our class!”

    With gratitude,

    Mrs. Bennett

  • Hearing With Headphones

    Funded Nov 27, 2018

    Having a set of headphones and mice for the students in my class has been a huge blessing. There are many activities that we do on the Chromebooks that students need to be able to listen to individually. It is amazing being able to provide that for each student so that they can continually do their best work and focus. Having mice also allows students to easily navigate programs on their devices.

    The students have loved being able to have their own set that allow them to practice responsibility. Each student is in charge of taking care of their headphones and mice and it has allowed them an appreciation for taking the best care possible of the items they are given.

    Having this supplies has made learning more exciting and accessible to all students. It has given every learner a chance to learn in the way that works best for them. Thank you for your support of our schools and classrooms. We are extremely grateful!”

    With gratitude,

    Mrs. Bennett

  • Brighten and Enlighten

    Funded Oct 5, 2017

    Thank you so much for your contribution to our classroom. The projector we received has helped the students in the class to engage and follow along with the lessons. In addition the speakers have allowed it so that we can view presentations and videos in class that align with the curriculum. Both have made learning in our classroom more productive and engaging. The students in our class are also able to use our new class Chromebook to work on their typing skills, practice their math facts, and test their comprehension skills. All wonderful things that help to encourage and promote exploration and learning.

    The students in my class have loved that they have so many opportunities to challenge themselves and to work towards their goals. We also love that we no longer have to turn off the lights when we are viewing presentations or videos. Everyone can see and hear everything so clearly!

    In particular, the English Language Learners in the class have benefited greatly from our new resources. They are now more able to take tests and use programs that will meet them where they are at in their learning. What a great opportunity it has been to scaffold and differentiate curriculum so that every students can benefit and succeed each and every day!”

    With gratitude,

    Mrs. Bennett

  • Terrific Technology

    Funded Oct 21, 2016

    Having Chromebooks easily accessible in the classroom has helped our students in many ways. Students are now able to type their essays, create a short video to summarize a novel we read, and create PowerPoint presentations on Native American tribes in California. These are just a few of the many projects our classroom has completed. Having access to technology helps to prepare them, not only for state testing, but also for many real life careers. Using these Chromebooks daily helps our students to become proficient in using all forms of technology and broaden the ways in which we can learn about different subject areas.

    Our classroom loves having access to Chromebooks that are strictly meant for our class. In this way they have access to programs such as Accelerated Reader and MobyMax at all times during the day. Having this access means that they are able to more quickly reach their goals and therefore, set higher standards for themselves.

    All the students are extremely grateful. In particular there is one student who has thrived from using the Chromebooks. Before it was a struggle finding ways to encourage him to write. Now that he has access to a Chromebook, he is able to write more freely and easily. With this Chromebook he is writing more and loving what he is writing about. Thank you for your contribution to our classroom!”

    With gratitude,

    Mrs. Bennett

Technology is a tool that can help even the most struggling of students. In our class we hope to use these Chromebooks to help learners find ways to succeed. In our class this year we have several students who need the help of technology daily so that they may not just meet expectations, but exceed expectations. In a classroom full of a variety of different students, each learner has differences in how they take in and understand information. Some in particular require the use of keyboards and typing tools to help them become better writers and to help motivate them in their strengths. Chromebooks are a tool these students can use to improve their writing through programs such as Google Classroom. Students will be able to take AR tests, which encourage them to read. In addition this will allow students to participate in the new math program, which is almost exclusively online. This will help to prepare them all for the state test at the end of the school year as well as help them understand how to use technology responsibly. By donating to this project you will have a hand in encouraging and challenging students to become lifelong learners. As students become more familiar with the world of technology, they can grow and develop skills that will help them to be responsible, educated and ultimately teachers in the area of technology.
