Donors Choose "iPad, iWonder"

UPDATE: 
My Project has been fully funded!! Thank you donors!! We can't wait to get our iPad mini!

Earlier this fall, I created a Donors Choose project called "iPad, iWonder." With help from GREAT family, friends, and parents, I am over halfway to having an iPad mini for my classroom!

I hope to use it not only during reading and reading workshop, but also as a way to motivate my class. If you can help or know someone who can, please share! Only 5 more days left!

Yesterday Donors Choose put out a Groupon, I'm so bummed I missed it! My project is getting so close to being funded! If you were lucky enough to grab the Groupon, here is a great way to help a classroom in need!

Here's my classroom request: www.donorschoose.org/misscremer




How many times have you said, "I wonder...." My students are constantly asking that as we are reading and learning. Our new reading/writing/and spelling series is called Reading Wonders and has the ability to be accessed on an iPad.
I have a class of 25 5th graders who have a variety of needs. Our school is 40% free and reduced lunch, however, we do not receive Title support. My students love to learn, however many of them do not have the resources they need at home. By giving them extra resources in the classroom, I hope to help them succeed.
Access to technology provides my students with so many opportunities. With an iPad, they will be able to research, read, video tape presentations, use it as a camera, and play educational games. There are also so many apps that they will be able to use.
By providing support to this project, my 5th graders will be able to not only answer their "I wonder..." questions, but also open their eyes to new information, practice skills, and most importantly enjoy learning.
My students and I greatly appreciate your support!


Thanks,

April


FULLY FUNDED!!! 

Please share!

iPad, iWonder and Limeades for Learning

Donors Choose and Sonic Limeades for Learning are working together to fund school projects across the country.  You can help by voting for my project, iPad, iWonder.  This is a great way to help, if you can't afford to donate.  

I know that an iPad in our classroom would not only help the students learn, but will also motivate them to read! 


Vote for iPad, iWonder

SONIC and DonorsChoose.org work together once a year to support public school classrooms. Starting Sept. 23, you can find your favorite teacher's project and vote for SONIC to fund it. It could be a teacher in your community or just a project that really speaks to you. You can vote once daily, and are encouraged to come back again and again.
Sonic has donated over $3,000,000 to projects across the country. Choose a project that speaks to you and help get it funded.
