We Need Today's Technology!

Help me give my students updated technology. Our Chromebooks can no longer be updated because they are too old. They can no longer run some programs.

My Students

I teach several special education resource classes of children in grades 1- 6 with learning disabilities, ADD, and autism. More than half are English Language Learners and we are a Title 1 school in a low socio-economic urban area. We are an underfunded school and need more access to technology resources.

My Project

These Chromebooks will help my students with dyslexia to access tools online that will help them to read and write to their potential. For example, they can use the Read Aloud extension to read aloud text online. They can use the voice typing in Google Docs to help them express themselves in writing and help them to spell accurately. They can use the microphone in the google search bar to research projects they are assigned in class.

Having technology helps students with disabilities become more independent.

They can accomplish more without having to ask another student or an adult for help. These Chromebooks will help them get there.
