As many of you know, three years ago I ran a fundraising drive to acquire laptops for students in my classroom. That project was an immense success with students over the past three years having unparalleled access to the Internet, Microsoft Excel, Geometer's Sketchpad, and Google SketchUp for projects in my classroom. I had students design and create 3D models of houses based on monetary restrictions, they analyzed functions using manipulatives, and created model budgets for themselves.
I am now asking again for updated computers to serve the next generation of student. While these laptops fulfill the same purpose as the former, they are more modern, not prone to shut down accidentally (as the old ones are now) and come with better software for more function in my classroom. Please help by donating through this DonorsChoose link. Use the code SPARK until Friday, October 10 in order to double your donation (up to $100). I am hoping to get these laptops soon as my old ones are quickly becoming large paperweights.
Thank you to all those who have donated already - I appreciate the help!
