5/10 – Forest Elementary School – SMART Document Camera - $829.00
Mike Syrek, President, SunTrust Bank, is pictured here with Ms. Middleton,
teacher and Ms. Manley, principal of Forest Elementary School. A donation from
SunTrust Bank helped to fund a document camera for Ms. Middleton's first grade
inclusion class at Forest Elementary School. She borrowed a SMARTboard and
document camera from another classroom during this past year and discovered how
helpful this equipment was in reaching the needs of all her students. She was
able to purchase a SMARTboard through another grant and asked the Foundation to
provide funds for the document camera. This camera is connected to an LCD
projector and any item can be placed on the camera and projected onto the SMART
board. This can be used in all the curriculums and with almost any item ranging
from a math manipulative to a living organism. If the camera is being used with
a SMART board, the teacher can even write on the image. Ms. Middleton feels the
interactions between the students and the technology mediums have been
advantageous to their academic and social development.
