Interactive Instruction Using an iPad
Funded Nov 19, 2021I cannot begin to express how grateful, my students and I are to all of you who generously donated to our classroom project. The iPad that you guys made possible has been a welcome technology tool that we have been able to implement in our classroom. The students have been able to use the iPad to focus on their iReady lessons and activities.
During the month of February, "Black History Month", the students were able to use the iPad to conduct research on specific African American heroes. This project allowed my students to become knowledgeable about heroes, such as, Ruby Bridges and Harriet Tubman. They also came to appreciate the importance of the contributions made by many African Americans, to American history, and the impact that those contributions have had on their lives.
We are beyond thankful for the kindness and generosity that you all displayed in helping to fund our classroom project. This iPad has, and will continue to be an important technology tool, that will benefit my students, as well as all the educators, that support and encourage the students' learning. The students and I will be forever grateful!”
With gratitude,

Cancel the Noise: Limit the Distraction!
Funded Dec 13, 2020Thank you all of your generous donations that funded our classroom project. My school has adopted the iReady on-line program, and my students are required to use technology daily, to complete their assignments and lessons. The school has limited resources for technology devices and accessories.
At the beginning of the school year, I purchased some "ear bud" type head sets for my students to use. However, the "buds' were not a perfect fit for their small ears and they kept falling out. Some of the students were using one hand to hold the head phones in, while trying to use their other hand to type on the keyboard and/or tap the screen of their devices. At times, myself or the teacher's assistant will have to hold the head sets, so that the student could focus on the assignment.
These head phones, that was made possible from your generous donations, have allowed my students to learn in comfort and therefore they have been more focused, while using using their technology devices. The students, as well as their parents were so extremely happy and grateful when I informed them that our classroom project was completely funded. There are not enough words to describe how thankful I am to all of you. Your generosity is greatly appreciated!”
With gratitude,
Mr. Khan
