My Students

If you ask any kindergarten teacher, he/she would tell you that students in kindergarten are the most diverse! Students in kindergarten often have the most differing backgrounds and educational experiences. It is challenging to meet the specific needs of each student. An iPod Touch will help us!

I teach twenty wonderful students in an all day Kindergarten classroom in a high-need community.

They are a beautiful, multi-cultural group with differing abilities. My classroom is hands- and brains-on, and we love to learn from one another and through music. We love to sing and dance. My goal is to inspire my students to believe in themselves and become lifelong learners. They have made my life brighter, and I would like to brighten theirs in return!

My Project

I am requesting an iPod Touch to help meet the individual needs of my students! My students would have the opportunity to use the iPod during literacy workstations and free choice centers. I would be able to install apps to address their specific instructional needs. The iPod would provide reinforcement for struggling students, extra practice for students on grade level, and enrichment for gifted students! Through the use of apps, educational songs, and educational videos, I will be able to help all my students reach their fullest potential!

Please help close the gap for my students and provide them an education specifically designed to meet their instructional needs!

School budgets continue to dwindle, and teachers must personally purchase resources for their students more and more. Your donation would mean the world to my students and me! They are very deserving!
