Bringing iPads into my classroom and into the learning environment of my students is about helping give my students tools that can give them a leg up when they have a disability that can make learning a struggle. For all students coming to my classroom, iPads will be used for reinforcement of skills through apps such as TouchMath, MobyMax, and Reflex Math. They will give students the option to use programs like Failure Free Reading in another format other than strictly at a computer on a table. For some of the students that come to my classroom, the iPads will go with them throughout their day to help with reading difficulties. Reading apps on the iPad will give them help needed to learn at grade level with the texts that are reviewed as a class. iPads will also assist these students with voice to text options, even help with note taking when writing is difficult and they struggle to be able to keep up. These students will use services and apps such as BookShare and LearningAlly. The voice to text option will be used to help some students with written expression. Bringing this technology into our classroom offers my students an amazing opportunity to push their abilities and express what they know.
