Techie Kids
Funded Jul 31, 2017Thank you so much for your generous donations. Our new Lenovo laptop has been a fantastic addition to our classroom. We are a blended learning school, which means we use online learning programs that we integrate into our curriculum on a daily basis. Our students have at least 20 minutes of quality computer time each day. With our new laptop one less student has to wait to use the computer. My goal is to have one to one technology before the end of the school year. Thank you for taking us one step closer to reaching that goal!”

Capture Every Moment!
Funded Sep 15, 2017My students were so excited to open up our new package to see a brand new camera inside. Most of my students have only used a camera on a cell phone. The camera takes such amazing pictures! The quality of the photos is fantastic. We took the camera straight outside to have some fun! We brainstormed as a class and we are going to take some great pictures to make some gifts for all of our families for Christmas! I can't wait to see all the memories we will be capturing this year! Thank you so much for your donation!”

Colors of Organization!
Funded May 11, 2017Thank you so much for you incredible donations. Our classroom library has transformed into an organized library full of adventures. My students know exactly where they need to look to choose the best books for themselves. I love that my students want to read and want to make sure they are choosing the best books according to their reading levels and needs. Students can easily find fiction books organized by levels in the purple book bins. They can also easily find chapter books and non-fiction books! Thank you for helping transform our classroom library!”

Funded Nov 11, 2016Thank you so much for your generous donations! My students were thrilled to receive four boxes of new supplies for our classroom. My students love the two new laptops we received with a wireless mouse for each one . They are light and portable, and they love bringing them to their own desks to work on their online programs. They would spend all day on them if I let them!

This classroom project was brought to life by The Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation and 3 other donors.Building Skills Through Technology!
Funded Sep 18, 2015Thank you for your donations! We were so excited when the package arrived, the kids clapped and cheered for our new tablet! I set the tablet up immediately and it was ready for the kids to use the next day!
Most of my students live in a high poverty area. It is rare for them to have Internet access and technology in their homes. When they come to school every day, our goal is to familiarize them with as much technology as possible. We have multiple online learning programs that the students use multiple times a day! With your donations my students have one more piece of technology available to them each day!
The students love being able to take their new tablet and get comfortable anywhere in the room. Most of them enjoy sitting on the carpet with a friend as they work on their programs! I have about four students who love the tablet so much that they even said, "It's like playing a video game, because it fits so nicely in their hands!"
Thank you again so much!”
