My Project

This year, I have the privilege of teaching twenty-four amazing 1st grade students from a very low income area of Washington, DC. I am requesting technology support. Supporting classrooms with more technology gives students the opportunity to learn 21st century skills, including problem-solving, collaboration and critical thinking skills, preparing students for success in a rapidly changing environment and in the STEM (science, technology, engineering, math) fields. Class time is limited, and when technology doesn’t work, I often have to revert to traditional methods. Only when access to technology is consistent and predictable we will be able to incorporate digital tools. Many of of my students do not have access to technology at home, and accessing technology in school is an opportunity to close the achievement gap. With more devices in the classroom, students will able to participate in the blended learning stations they deserve. To be considered a blended learning model, at least one station must be an online learning station. Please help support my students with they need to be successful in school.
