Little Learners, Big Goals! Kinder and Technology

Funded Oct 23, 2019

I want to begin by telling you how thankful we are for your generous contribution to our classroom. My students have been learning how to use different forms of technology to help increase their performance and by adding the Chromebooks, they can experience using laptops. Many of them do not have a desktop or laptop at home, and now they get the opportunity to use one in the classroom. Every resource we get in our classroom we use to maximize our student's abilities, focus on their areas of weaknesses in all the different content, as well as build on their strengths.

We are currently working diligently on the I-ready program, which helps students increase their reading and math skills. They log on twice a week during small group to work on the lessons assigned to them. Having the Chromebooks in the classroom allow me to have another center where they use technology. We know how important it is for our children to learn how to use technology properly in order to do well as they grow educationally and eventually when they enter the workforce. Our little learners are also learning how to do proper research using credible webpages and search engines to gather more information about animals they are doing a project on for science.

The use of the Chromebooks has made learning, small group, and intervention exciting for our students. They look forward to the activities in the classroom because they know we have the Chromebooks which like I stated before, many of them have never used prior to having them donated to our classroom. We are thankful for people like you who invest in our future leaders and see the value of giving them these amazing opportunities. Thank you from the bottom of my heart for giving my kids these resources.”

With gratitude,

Ms. Donado
