My Students

Students are motivated to learn when they are having fun. My plan is to setup a center with an IPad where it can be used for different purposes during the day. During reading student can use apps for reading enrichment, during Math they can use apps for math drills and learning.

These lovable students are just a couple of miles from downtown Los Angeles.

They are underprivileged kids who love to come to school and I am to give them a safe and nurturing environment. When they are at home they stay indoors for safety, but when they are at school they are alive and ready to be engaged.

My Project

My plan is to setup a center with an IPad where it can be used for different purposes during the day. During reading student can use apps for reading enrichment, during Math they can use apps for math drills and learning. During science and social studies they can explore the world's people and nature through the use of technology.

It is imperative that our donors understand that these students don't have access to technology.

They don't have Internet at home. They are underprivileged and would benefit from what we take for granted.
