It's Time to Get Rid of the Chalkboard!

My students need to have access to technology. The IPEVO IS-01 Interactive Whiteboard System will allow us to use the magnetic dry erase board for hands-on instruction.

Celebrate Black Teachers and Students

This project is part of the Black History Month celebration because it supports a Black teacher or a school where the majority of the students are Black.

My Students

My student's are growing up in a high risk area, where most people count them out before they even get started. They live in a neighborhood that is primarily section 8 housing.

We are a Title I school, and All of the students receive free breakfast and lunch.

Most students come to school without having any school supplies from home. Unfortunately funding has been cut in our district and supplies are not easily accessible. It is my hope to update our classroom by providing resources we do not have access to.

My Project

Having the Interactive Whiteboard System will allow for my students to become engage with lesson in all subjects areas. Most Interactive Whiteboards cost thousands of dollars, and my school does not have the funds to provide the this type of technology to every classroom. This system along with the Magnetic Whiteboard will allow me to remove the dated Chalkboard in my classroom, and even the playing field.

Kids nowadays are very tech savvy, and as educators we need to do everything we can engage them.

Rather then complain about the resources I do not have access to I am choosing to find a solution for my students. This grant will help to close that gap just a little bit more. My student's deserve the best, and you could be a part in updating out classroom.
