My Project

My students are interested in learning about so many topics and learn best in many different ways. They come from diverse backgrounds and this enriches our classroom environment. Our school strives to offer students a rich learning experiences and to support the whole child. We would really appreciate support in gathering materials to enhance learning experiences.

To that end, having a HP Laptop will allow my students experiences such as creating videos and researching information beyond print sources.

This will allow them to tap into the multiple intelligences so very evident among the children of our class community.

In today's world, it's so important for students to be able to use technological devices for more than just to play games. Having experience with and knowledge of technology is imperative to success for students of today's generation. Our classroom is in dire need of devices on which children can enhance the technological skills.

They also provide opportunities for enrichment and additional academic support.

Having an HP Laptop will allow me to access websites like Time for Kids that exposes children to current events as well as science and social studies information. Children can work in small groups on math and reading programs to enrich and support skills in these disciplines.
