Connecting Students to the World

The Description

With these funds I will purchase ten Kindle Fires for students to use in the classroom to promote learning. Students will be able to connect to resources that focus on reading, math, science, and social studies. 

My students would love to have Kindles available to them in the classroom. Currently our school has over 400 students who share a computer lab. It is difficult to find a long enough lab time to complete tasks requiring the internet and websites that enhance their learning experiences. Although the amount requested would not provide each student with one, it would however provide a Kindle for each learning group in the class. The Kindles would also be utilized throughout the day to help differentiate the curriculum and/or extend the students understanding of particular concepts.

The following link provides the item that I would like to purchase to help foster student learning. I would like to purchase 10 Kindle Fires (7-inch tablet) for $49.99 each.

Back Up Plan

If I do not meet my goal I will purchase as many Kindles as I can with the money that has been donated.  If I don't have enough funds to even purchase one Kindle Fire I will use the money to purchase apps.

About the Creator

I have been a public school educator for the last 16 years at the elementary level. I teach at a school that services 400+ students in grades K-5. I love teaching however funds are not always available to buy items that support curriculum. I'm hoping to find funding to help connect students with on-line resources to promote learning in the classroom.
