I have the privilege of teaching in many different learning environments and all ages of elementary students. I teach young (K-3) struggling readers and older (3-6) gifted and talented students. The majority of my teaching is remote, reaching students throughout the state. There are many challenges that need to be overcome when teaching remotely. I feel that the iPad will revolutionize the way I deliver direct instruction. There are many activities that I use when teaching my struggling readers in person that I have been hindered to use remotely. With an iPad, I will overcome this obstacle. When the students are reading, it's important for me to make markings to help them decode the words. When we work on irregular words, we mark the part of the word that can't be sounded out. I also do a chaining exercise where I only erase one letter and replace it with a different one. We also write spelling words. Being able to write directly on my prepared slides, will allow more interaction and connection. With my Gifted and Talented students, an iPad will allow me to enrich our discussions and collaboration. I'll be able to write down their ideas, draw diagrams, and elevate the engagement. Your contribution to this project would have a huge impact on our remote learning.
