Students from C Period Math share their thoughts on the new ChromeBook cart provided through a grant from GDEF:
28 April 2015
Dear GDEF,
My name is Sydney and I am in 7th Grade Pre-Algebra 1 with Ms. Durling. In our daily classes we use chromebooks a lot but not as much as we do with Ms. Durling. We use our chromebooks to work in Google Classroom. Without this technology we wouldn’t be able to learn in a new and fun way. We use the chromebooks to learn with simulations. We used these when we were learning about cross sections and integers. I think having the chromebooks every day will be more helpful. For example, at the beginning of class we usually watch a video to prepare us for our lesson that day. With the chromebooks we can just watch it on our own with headphones. We can also use these to work on google forms which allow Ms. Durling to check in on how much we are learning. I like having the chromebooks in class everyday because there is usually a line for the answer key at the front of the room. And how am I supposed to know if I did my work right if I cannot check it. With the chromebooks Ms. Durling can hand them out and we can check the answer on the computer. Also, we can watch videos on the chromebooks if we get stuck or confused on a lesson. This was a very thoughtful gift, and I am sure you weren’t thinking about all the reason why we needed them that I just listed when you gave them to us, but I know that you were thinking with the kindness in your heart. Thank you very much!
Sincerely,
Sydney W
7th Grade Pre-Algebra 1

Thank You GDEF
Thank you for the new Chromebooks. They are high tech and better than the original Chromebooks. We are really lucky to have these tools for us to learn in school. We will take good care of these Chromebooks.

Thank you so much for the cass set of chromebooks! It will be way easier to access Mrs. Durling google classroom and work on the helpful resources there with a chromebook cart always there to use. I know these computers will be used much to help with the education of many students, all thanks to your generous fund. We really look forward to using your generous gift this year. Thank you, GDEF!

A big thank you to the GDEF for our new chromebooks. When we didn’t have these and we needed to use computers but all the chromebooks were out we had to use the beat up netbooks that have missing keys. Those were not in the best conditions. Now we have these brand new chromebooks. So thank you very much.
