My Students

My enthusiastic students are ELL students in a Title I school. All the students are entitled to free lunch as well as breakfast. We are an inner city school. My students are enthusiastic life long learners. I have a diverse group of learners. They love to learn and have a great work ethic. They are building their English language skills. They are on many different levels, and technology would be the factor that bridges that gap. They are eager little beavers.

My Project

The Chromebooks will be used every day for listening and reading for my English Language Learners. We use several online learning websites that these Chromebooks will help us to access. There are 29 students in my class, and I want all of them to have computer access.

The Chromebooks will help my students to listen, read and write at their level and grow.

Investing in this project is an investment in their future and ours. Reading is they key to all academic success, so in turn you will be helping my students overall academic achievement. In addition these Chromebooks will help my students to use technology as needed in the 21st century.
