Language-Learning through Classroom Technology!

The Description

With your generous donation, I will fund an annual subscription for 160 students with the new language-learning application, ClassTracks. ClassTracks is a pioneering program that promises to push students to master vocabulary efficiently and effectively. One look and you will see that it challenges students through a game-like interface to boost vocabulary and better prepare for every lesson at their own pace. Last year, I had the opportunity to introduce my class members to ClassTracks, and I can say with certainty that they engage with the core portion of each class with greater energy and enthusiasm. I can only imagine their growth rate will continue to soar with your help.

Your support not only serves my students and their mission to master Spanish, but it also promotes their broader ability to compete with their more privileged peers around the country by encouraging technological literacy. Buck Lodge is a Title 1 school that relies on federal funding to support classroom technology and compensate for educational resources that are not always available in homes around our community. We work hard with student families to give their children a chance to develop the same skills that any aspiring professional requires to succeed in an evolving society. Your support will broaden cultural horizons while helping many bright minds create and communicate their ideas through the power of technology. ¡Muchas gracias por su ayuda!

Here is the breakdown in cost for fundraising for ClassTracks:

  • ClassTracks - $100.00
  • Preferred Partner Program (15%) - $15.00
  • PledgeCents Platform Fee (5%) - $5.00
  • Processing Fee (3%) - $3.00
  • Total - $123.00 (rounded up to the nearest dollar)

Back Up Plan

If I do not meet my goal, I promise that not a penny will be wasted! I will just combine any funds raised by others with my own money to pay for the program subscription. Please encourage your friends to join the cause and help make our dream a reality.
