Why I need this: While teaching math it is very diffcult to show students "how to" solve problems using the whiteboard or traditional overhead projectors. If I have a projector and ELMO (digital visual presenter) the students can follow along much more easily as we all work on paper. In addition, I can show every tiny bit of work done as we go and simply take it to the copy machine so all students can have a copy for reference when they are working at home. I would also be able to use the projector for use of interactive Power Point programs in both math and science classes.
Students LOVE the types of interactive games that I would be able to incorporate if I had a projector in the classroom. A projector is invaluable in the classroom and I would be very grateful if I could have one to use daily. I'd even be happy to send photos of its use back to the generous donor if I were to get so lucky. Thank you for considering my request.
