Tablets for Tech-ucation!

Funded Feb 26, 2017

Class 205 cannot thank you enough for your generous donation. The tablets that you have kindly donated to our classroom have made the students' learning that much more enjoyable and rigorous. As the students found out about the new technology that was entering our classroom, their faces were filled with joy and excitement. They could not believe that this technology was something that would be integrated into our every day instruction.

The technology that you have provided us with has helped increase our reading levels. The students use the tablets during independent reading to access reading sites such as myOn and SmartyAnts intervention. These sites allow the students to practice phonics skills in an engaging way and also adjust their reading levels accordingly. Also, these tablets are used during literacy centers for students to play phonics games and practice their fluency.

Furthermore, the tablets are helping improve our math instruction as well. My students now have access to technology during small group math instruction and centers. They can go on math intervention sites such as ThinkCentral to improve their math skills and work on past units that they haven't yet mastered.

Overall, I have seen so much improvement in their levels and in their excitement to learn. Thank you so much again for all you have given class 205. It means the world to us!”

With gratitude,

Ms. Quenneville
