iPads!

Dear Families, 

I know you have heard of the family photos offered at Quest as a fundraiser. (Click here for a reminder) I just wanted to show you a picture of kids in our class playing an educational game on the iPad.  I LOVE this game!! Tens frame Snap. 

This game is one we could all play if we had more iPads to share in the classroom. Quest has 6 they are willing to let a grade use if the grade raises the most money. I know there are many amazing photographers in the area, and if your family has already scheduled family photos, would you please consider donating $25 to Quest to raise money for iPads in the classroom? 

If you have an iPad at home – I would HIGHLY recommend this game!

Thank you!! Love, Mrs. Esson’s Kindergarten Students

Family Photos

Dear Families,

Please consider getting your family photos taken with an AMAZING photographer. Toni J has offered her time and services to help Quest raise money to purchase iPads for classroom use. 

Date: November 9th Saturday

Where: Quest Elementary Gym

Call 801.643.0324 to book your appointment

100% of the $25 will go to POQA.  A portion of your print order will also be donated to POQA.

If you sell TWO or more Sessions YOU receive Free Christmas Cards!

The GRADE that brings in the most money will win the FIRST set of 6 iPads to use with students! 

Please go to the Quest blog http://qacblogs.org/quest/ for more details. 

I have seen many professional teachers use iPads in their classroom and it would be AMAZING if we could win the first six to use in our class. Please take a moment to talk with family and friends about getting photos taken to support our school. The photos are stunning. Examples are on the Quest blog.
