Hello, I teach 7th grade highly accelerated Algebra and 8th grade highly accelerated Geometry. These students desire to learn. With the pandemic leaving them with less instruction last year, they are thriving for math. They are all at home learning through zoom sessions and zoom sessions can't replace the one on one teachers have with their students. About 65% of my school qualify for free/reduced lunch. Most of our school's funding go to personnel so updated technology that meets the need of our students can be difficult to purchase.
My Project
My students thrive to learn. They ask questions while soaking up the material. The Surface allows me to answer all their questions without having to leave my share screen to hook the computer to a document reader to support my student"s questions.
The many tool capablities on the Surface make taking notes so much easier for my students while they are sitting at home.
This device allows me to zoom with my students without any glitches and I feel that I can give them the education that they deserve during this time with distance learning.
More than half of students from low‑income households
Data about students' economic need comes from the National Center for Education Statistics, via our partners at MDR Education. Learn more
