Help Ms. Joiner

I am in need of an ELMO or a similar device to assist me in teaching my 4th grade class. Having this device will allow me to put the text that they looking at, or any printed material, on the big screen and pointing out the area that I am speaking of. I have students in my class with very poor reading skills and short attention spans, and they have trouble following along. I teach a self-contained 4th grade class, which is all subjects. Reading, English, Math, Spelling, Social Studies, Science, and Handwriting. I currently have 24 students. This device would be useful in every subject that I teach and would be used throughout the entire day. I already have a projector, so the only materials I need is the device itself. I have a degree in eduational technology, so I am familiar with how to set it up myself and use it to its full potential. In these times when teachers must compete with all of the media that are kids are influenced with, a device such as this would keep their attention longer and make the learning more meaningful. I appreciate your consideration in fullfilling this request.
