Technology is becoming more and more prominent in our elementary school classrooms. Teachers used to have to use overhead projectors to show their work on the board. It was really exciting when document cameras came out. This made it so that transparencies weren't a thing any more. Teachers could take any item or piece of paper and project it on the screen. The only problem with both overhead projectors and document cameras are that you are stuck in one spot of the classroom the entire time you are using it. Technology has improved to the point where teachers don't have to be stationary while using a document camera. With the use of an Apple TV, I would be able to hook up an iPad or many other items to my projector and move around while projecting my work. That opens up so many options for me as a teacher to be able to show student work more easily as well as utilize the capabilities of the iPad while projecting to the class. In addition to the Apple TV, I am asking for a new iPad and an Apple Pencil. I like to think that these three items will work perfectly together in my classroom. Having an Apple Pencil will help me best write on the iPad when I am using it. It will help my writing be easier to read. I plan on using this new iPad to create math videos for students who may be absent on any given school day, or for all students should we transition again to online learning. Thank you for helping fund this project so that I can more effectively teach my incredible students this school year and for years to come.
