Having laptops in the classroom would be unbelievably beneficial to my students. Students will be able to practice real life skills while engaging in fun, interactive activities. Students would use the laptops throughout all steps of the writing process, resulting in fully published essays. Students would also use the laptops on a daily basis to practice much needed literacy skills. Using Google classroom would allow students to practice working together on projects, as well as allow teachers a hands-on way to monitor student progress. ENL students would be able to use programs like Translator in order to help them understand and participate more fully in classroom activities. Your donation to our project would be life changing for many students as having laptops would change the way students learn and increase academic achievement in all areas! Students in our school incorporate leadership qualities into their daily academic lives, and having laptops in the classroom would be a big step in guiding them towards being successful future leaders as adults. Thank you for considering our project!
