My Students

Do you remember the first time to used a laptop and marveled about the convenience of being able to do everything anywhere? I would love for my students to have that same experience.

My second graders are inquisitive and eager learners.

With our school’s recent implementation of the new Treasures Reading Program, teachers are left to manage and teach from the curriculum’s abundant resources, ranging from leveled readers to computer animated software programs, and research projects in order to increase achievement levels while ensuring that all students must meet or exceed standards. Most of the students do not have access to a computer and/or internet in their home. Their only opportunity to interact with technology is at school. Due to budget cuts, there aren't enough funds to replace outdated computers. Besides the my personal laptop and one desktop, there are no other computers in the classroom for students to take advantage of the programs and software that is necessary for us to differential and address all students’ needs. The students are excited to further their computer literacy skills but are not able to do so.

My Project

My students need a laptop to help build a strong literacy foundation necessary to be successful in the 21 century where students must be able to use technology effectively. Having a laptop would allow students access to many enriching learning opportunities. For instance, during small group, the laptop would enable two students at a time to listen to animated stories, access the internet to conduct research, create PowerPoint presentations, use the latest photo and video editing software, and to practice their word processing skills.

Please help my students acquire the skills in order to be successful in our technologically advanced society.

Your generous donation will enable my students to begin building a strong literacy foundation necessary to be successful as they continue through their educational endeavor, and to become productive citizens.
