To Build A (Kindle) Fire: Help Alaskan Students Get Online!
Funded Oct 25, 2018
Thanks to your generosity and kindness, the campaign to purchase e-book readers for my English as a Second Language and literacy skills classroom was fully funded! These devices will be put to good use, both fostering students' love of reading by opening the door to the world's digital libraries, and providing easier access to adaptive materials for students' individual reading levels and language needs. Thank you again, and I look forward to updating you when the devices arrive - it looks like they'll come just in time for Christmas!”
With gratitude,
Ms. Ohlert
This classroom project was brought to life by The DonorsChoose.org Community and 11 other donors.

My students range from newcomer English Language Learners to students who just need a little extra help with reading or writing. If each student had consistent access to a device with word processing and internet capability, we could much more easily differentiate for and support these ELLs using leveled texts, language resources, educational apps, assistive technologies, and self-paced assignments. Unfortunately, it's not in our school's budget to provide a one-to-one device-to-student ratio, so I am turning to Donors Choose in hope of obtaining a classroom set of tablets. Tablets would provide my Limited English Proficiency students with greater independence. It would also give these rural kids a level of connectivity that populations in more affluent or metropolitan regions sometimes take for granted. Any donations, no matter how great or small, would be deeply appreciated by all of us.
