  • Creativity Through Techonology!

    Funded Sep 7, 2018

    Thank you so much! I've been so eager to transform our traditional learning environment to a more relaxed creative learning environment with many technology options. My students were so excited when they saw the Kindles that we received. I have students who have special learning needs, and also students who struggle with attention deficit. The tablets allowed them to work with engaging apps that were catered to their learning needs.

    I also would like to thank you for the bean bags places in my reading area. My students were so excited with the seating they received! Your generosity will not be forgotten.”

    With gratitude,

    Ms. Plattenburg

My students work best through technology. Having these Amazon tablets will increase attention and heighten class performance. Throughout the school year I noticed that some of the best work created by my students was products of technology. Due to only having desktops, our students were limited in completing various activities. Amazon tablets will increase my students creativity and keep them focused on learning as well. I want my students to have Amazon tablets available to feel like they are at “home” and comfortable in a classroom setting. Also using these Amazon tablets in centers and playing games whole group such as Kahoot! Will involve greater class participation.
