iPads are an awesome tool for teaching kids in this digital age. With the addition of iPads into our classroom, my students will be able to access apps that reinforce skills and enable higher level learning. An iPad helps students who are kinesthetic and visual learners be excited about the learning process. The iPad will become a tool that will help create more authentic learning experiences in the classroom and build skills that our children need in order to be successful in a technical world. My students will be able to work in centers with the iPads, writing, reading, learning phonemic awareness skills, working with math manipulatives and more.
