Laptops for Students

Funded Feb 15, 2019

Thank you for your donation! Your donation of laptops have allowed my students to access their reading and mathematics intervention programs. We use a reading intervention program called Achieve 3000. It is a computer based program. The program is all nonfiction stories and have comprehension questions and writing prompts included. My students were able to access these stories on a daily basis. This has improved their reading levels. We use a Math Space intervention program. This program is designed to help the student catch up on math skills that they are missing. This helps them to become better mathematicians.

The students were very excited to receive the laptops. We recently did a wax museum project. The students were able to research a famous person in society and create a project board and presentation of that person. They were only able to do the research using the laptops that were donated. The students are very proud that we have our own set of laptops. They take great care to make sure they are looked after and charged for the next day. It taught them to value this resource.

This donation is very generous! My students were able to use the laptops to improve their reading, math and writing skills. They will continue to be used in the middle school for many years to come. So a whole new set of students will be able to access the necessary programs to improve their reading and math skills.”
