Brief Description
The Texas Retired Teachers Foundations awards 15 teachers
yearly with a 500 dollar grant used to improve student achievement in any academic area or campus need.
In order to increase the love of reading and technology use in my classroom, it is my goal to expose
students to a Kindle Fire HD and its features. With the grant money

digital books for my students to read and use in the classroom.
