Math Counts Every Day! #2
Funded Dec 11, 2015Before we received your donation, students had to spend time waiting a turn to use an iPad, and while the iPad is great, it limited students in creating projects and accessing educational software. Students were often off task in my groups because they were eager to use technology, but they didn't like waiting. We also had to share with other classrooms, so we had to wait a very long time to use again. This caused distress and unhappiness with my groups. While it was discouraging, I knew I wanted to provide my students with opportunities to use technology. Reaching out to donors like you was a dream come true!
Now that we have the laptops, technology is always available & ready for students to access educational programs and create projects. As you can see from the pictures, they are always engaged and engrossed in their activities when they use a laptop. Their confidence is growing as they learn to type, research, create documents, insert pictures or videos, and in general, navigate their way around the Web.
Having the laptops is also great motivator, and we cannot thank you enough for your generous donation! I work with students who have special needs, and they blossom when it comes to showcasing their work with technology! For example, I have a student who struggles with communicating with her peers and teachers, but she shines when she is working with a partner to create a project!”
