My Students

I teach third grade math and science at a Pre-K through 5th grade school in North Miami Beach. Most of my students are high-poverty and have limited technology at home.

My students are always excited to use technology in the classroom and when we do center activities, they rush for the computers to explore online math and science resources.

For most of our students, Internet access and the use of computers are a luxury that they do not have at home. After Hurricane Irma, the financial situation for most of our students became even worse and they are still facing the challenges of coming to school with basic supplies. Most do not have computer access at home.

My Project

As we are embarking to be designated officially a STEAM (Science, Technology, Engineering, Arts, and Math) school, technology has now infiltrated every aspect of how our classes are taught.

After Hurricane Irma struck, most students came back with fewer supplies and less access to the tools they need to be successful.

Even with limited resources, using technology in my classroom has proved to be quite a success as the students learn quickly, discover and enjoy every lesson while developing scientific exploration, analytical and critical math skills.

I am requesting four HP Chromebook laptop computers which will be used for STEAM online activities. My students now need to experience actually utilizing technology on a personal "one on one" basis, to enhance their language skills as well as computer skills. Currently, my classroom is very limited in terms of technology/computers. In fact, there is only a teacher's workstation and three outdated computers in my classroom. We are aiming to become a STEAM school in the upcoming school year and having our students get direct access to technology will prepare them for the near future. Your donation would enhance my students' lives and expose them to using technology in our classroom.
