Due to my students living in a low-income area, we struggle with having viable technology. Most of the devices like classroom the laptops are older than my students. To continue to improve my students' learning and building a connection to the world, I would like to increase the use of technology in my classroom to promote technology-based lessons, improve reading skills, and discovery. I am hoping to raise funds to purchase 6 Fire HD 8 tablets from Amazon for my classroom. The Fire 8 tablets will be used to allow students to connect to many useful apps that will help enhance their learning experience in the classroom and build their literacy skills. By donating to my classroom, you are assisting in providing my students with a chance to receive a quality education. My students deserve the best, and my goal is to give it to them. It first starts with me finding ways like donations to get us the supplies we need, so that they are learners with a bright and powerful future ahead.
