Hey everyone, Its been three whole months being a class teacher to an energetic group of 43 second graders at Shamrao Barate English Medium School in Pune, and I have realized one thing: these kids are insatiable. I plan tirelessly to put up a good “show” every day in my classroom, so that my kids can enjoy learning. My class doesn’t have benches and at times the kids get tired of paying attention to the content being taught in class. So one day I bought in my brand new laptop into my class, just to add some more “fun” to the day. This was my first, and last mistake. The moment I took out my laptop, I was swarmed by my kids owing to the fact that all of them couldn’t see the video being played on the laptop screen. This made me realize the need to facilitate not only a better, but a more accessible (and comfortable) learning experience for my kids. Also ,I want to save time spent on making charts, and use the same in putting together colorful and educative presentations that would facilitate student engagement. I am planning on utilizing the collected amount to buy a BenQ MS51P HDMI input projector which is available on Flipkart( http://www.flipkart.com/benq-ms521p-projector/p/itmdum9v46asdzks?pid=PRODUM9V46ASDZKS&srno=b_4&ref=c554b0b5-d83c-4ed7-803d-bc8bbbdde914) that costs INR 28,999/- for my class. I would be using this projector for the next whole year before I hand it over to the next teacher who teaches my children. Thus, I humbly request all of you to help me in my mission to make my classroom a better place for these kids. I assure you that this contribution will go a long way in helping my class achieve our goals. Thank you all, Shreya Atre
