• History Tech

  Funded Jul 21, 2018

  Thank you so much for investing my students education. Technology is such an important part of our lives. It is important to have up-to-date technology so the students can develop 21st century skills in class. The document camera has allowed me to project student work, historical documents and maps. I use it to model what I am looking for on their assignments and the students have used it to present their work to the class. It is a fantastic tool and I am glad to have it in my room.

  Having Chromebooks in my room allows students to research information on days when I do not have access to the school's computer cart. The Chromebooks are used most days in small groups. It is very helpful to have this tool in a social studies class.

  I feel so blessed that you value and support the education of our youth as much as I do. Your kindness is greatly appreciated and will help many students for years to come. Once again, thank you for investing in the future!”

• History and Technology

  Funded Feb 16, 2017

  From the bottom of my heart, thank you for your donation to my project, History and Technology. I am grateful that you value using technology in the classroom as much as I do. My students are thrilled to have access to Chrome Books in the classroom.

  In this day and age students need to be able to hone their 21st skills. Using technology in a history class is a fantastic way to do that. Students will learn how to appropriately navigate the digital world that they are growing up in. This is all because of you!

  We have been using the Chrome Books in a variety of ways. Students who don't have access to computers at home have been allowed to sign them out to be able to complete assignments at home. We have used the Chrome Books to play historical games and to do research. The Chrome Books are also used to complete formative assessments in class.

  Once again, it is because of your generosity that I am able to incorporate technology into the classroom on a more consistent basis. Thank you so much!”

• An iPad for the Classroom

  Funded Aug 25, 2016

  I wanted to take a moment and offer my deepest gratitude for your generosity. I am able to integrate technology in my classroom daily. Thanks for helping make my classroom that much more engaging. I am glad that you value technology in education as much as I do.

  With your help, students are able to use the ipad to research, respond to classroom prompts and complete online quizzes. They enjoy using it and look forward to it every day.

  I am able to use it to collect and record data as I walk around and work with individual groups. I also use an app on it as part of my classroom rewards and can generate random groupings quickly.

  Once again, thanks so much.”

• Creating Student Films in the History Classroom

  Funded Mar 11, 2016

  Dear Donors,

  Now that I have my video equipment, I am looking forward to creating documentaries and student films with my

  history classes. I wanted to take a moment to properly thank you for making this a possibility. Your generous donations have made it possible to create engaging lessons where students have opportunities to research and

  present information in a creative and fun way.

  As this year winds down, I am looking forward to next year and the chance to really have the students dig deep

  into history as they research, write and produce videos. I am thankful that you value Social Studies education and creative expression as much as I do.

  Once again, I am grateful for all of your kind donations. All the best for a happy summer!”

• Technology for the History Class

  Funded Nov 2, 2015

  Now that I have received my Chrome Books, I thought it was time to take a moment and express my sincerest gratitude for your generous donations to my classroom. We live in such a technologically rich society, so using twenty first century skills is an integral part of every classroom. Because of you, students in my classes have more opportunities to access the Internet for research and projects allowing them to read, write and think like historians.

  I am looking forward as the year goes on to have students eager to learn and be engaged in history as the Chrome Books become part of our daily routine. I am thankful that you value Social Studies education and technology as much as I do.

  Once again, I am extremely grateful for your act of kindness. All the best for a wonderful 2016.”
