I teach 2nd grade in Staten Island, New York City. I teach a mixture of children including children receiving resource room services as well as gifted children.

My classroom has 2 computers and the school doesn't provide programs that encompass all curriculum areas. So if the children want to work on the computer on reading and math, they must use 2 different programs switching the CDs back and forth. Jumpstart Advanced not only encompasses reading and math, but all other curriculum areas as well. I also need some sturdy headphones as I have been buying the ones from the dollar store and they do not last and rip easily.

If I receive the program for my students, they will benefit everyday. These programs provide practice and enrichment in all subject areas including math, reading, science, social studies, music, and more. I can also differentiate instruction as the games on the program come in different levels. The headphones will also be a great improvement so the children do not have to wear hard plastic headphones since the foam always rips on the ones I am buying from the dollar store. We definitely need something sturdier.

Your help will make my classroom computer area more enriching for my students by providing educational software that we desperately need. Thank you for your consideration!
