A Chrome(book) Classroom

Funded Aug 22, 2017

On behalf of the students of 316 as well as myself, thank you so much for our first year with the Chromebooks you helped us to get for our classroom! This past school year was completely enhanced with the addition of these Chromebooks. Students were able to work on 21st-century skills like computer literacy and internet responsibility. They were also able to create writing portfolios online which they were able to share with their classmates in order to garner peer feedback as well as show off their amazing creative writing like including poetry and memoirs as well as research papers and analytical essays. My students who struggle specifically with organization and keeping track of many papers especially benefited from having access to the Chromebooks on a daily basis as they were able to do more of their work with Google Docs. One of my biggest responsibilities as an eighth grade teacher is to prepare my students for high school. I was so happy that I could help these students learn an organizational tool like Google Docs before going off to high school. Thank you again so much for helping me get these for my classroom. I am excited to put them to use again this upcoming school year!”

With gratitude,

Ms. Robinson
