My Project

I am requesting a high quality camera to capture some of the most memorable moments from everyone’s favorite grade! Kindergarten has so many memorable learning experiences that I intend on taking pictures of and printing out at the end of the school year to include in their memory books.

Kindergarten is the cornerstone of an enjoyable school experience and I want to capture those most important moments with a nice cannon rebel camera.

I have noticed students tend to be more active in their learning if they are aware it’s being documented. This will be a great tool for our classroom, thank you.
