Learning With A Tablet

Funded Dec 9, 2011

Thank you for all your donations! We have received the tablet and are so excited to learn how to use it. Many of my students have never seen a tablet before and are thrilled to be able to make it part of their daily life. Everyday we discover something new!! Just last week the students located the camera and started using it. My students are so excited when it is their turn to use the new technology.

The students have been coming in at their lunch period to get an extra turn. Being able to look up the images of many of our new vocabulary words has been amazing. The tablet has been so helpful during our small reading groups. While reading a story about Ghana, we were able to quickly look up Ghana and see a number of images. My students instantly became more interested and excited about reading the story. As all the students get more and more comfortable using the tablet we look forward to doing research projects and multimedia presentations.

Our school district is facing a huge budget shortfall so without your help, my students would never have been able to experience this new technology. Thank you again for supporting public education and helping classrooms like mine get the resources we need.”
