Learning Is Fun With Technology

My students need an iPod touch, a case, a screen shield, and an A/V cable to help them document themselves reading different plays and other performances to show their parents.

My Students

Wouldn't it be nice if parents can come into their children's classroom and be able to watch them on TV? Well, they will be able to do just that...when the students can record themselves using the iPod Touch.

My students are very interested in learning.

They come from low income families but that doesn't stop them from wanting to achieve their goals. They will do anything you ask them to. They like to share their ideas with their classmates. They love to perform and act out plays.

My Project

With this project, my students will be able to record themselves reading plays from Readers Theater which in turn will help them improve their reading skills and their confidence level. They would also be able to show their parents what they have done in the classroom when their parents come in for a visit.

Your donation to this project will help my students gain confidence and enhance their reading skills.

They also get to show their parents all they have learned in the classroom. Help with is project and my students will SHINE!
