My Project

My creative, verbal, intelligent students who live in a low socio-economic area need technology tools. We need a computer to bring our thinking and learning to life. Students will engage with the computer by viewing slideshows

They will notice and wonder about art and text.

Also, allowing students to come to the computer to be "leaders" is invaluable. We look at text features, write responses, and compare different genres of text. I love to see my students' responses to what they are reading, I shall share them with you! Next, we need headphones as we work on math and reading platforms tailored to individual needs. This drives their success. Finally, we need replacement pens for our Smartboard to show our great thinking. We can have logical debates that show our work and enable us to talk about our work. We will come to agreements and discuss the responses given.

Thank you for your consideration and generosity during these challenging times.
