Goal

To supply students with the needed resources to support digital learning in the classroom. 

 

What will be done with my students

I would like to provide my students the ability to stay connected to their laptops in the classroom during class instruction. To do this I need to provide my students with power sources and flexible seating options.  

 

Benefits to my students

Research has shown that students who are able to choose flexible seating options during learning increases their focus. Integrating digital learning into the curriculum encourages students to take interest in their learning in a new way. With the needed resources to support digital learning, students will be more engaged with learning math concepts and standards.  

 

Describe the Students

My students are active learners, using an inquiry approach to their education. The students represent a plethora of races from our community: 47% white, 36% African American, 9% Hispanic, 4% Multi-Racial, 4% Asian. Almost 50% of our students come from low income families. I have a mix of gifted students and regular education students. They all have different learning needs and I believe will show positive growth when provided with the necessary resources. 

 

Budget Narrative

4 power strips to place around the room for students to plug their laptops into. 4 Cable grips floor covers to cover the cables from the power strips to avoid a tripping hazard. 2 rectangular adjustable height tables for students to work on the floor near a power strip or wall plug. 10 wobble cushions for students to sit on when on the floor working.
