I need 3-5 iPads with protective cases for my 5th grade special education classroom at H.G. Hill middle school in Nashville, Tn. The iPads will be used for working on skills that I will be teaching them as well as skills that will increase their capability for learning. For example: students with learning disabilities also will have a weakness in short term memory and processing speed. There are apps for children to help strengthen these skills. Students with Aspergers (high functioning autism) struggle with social skills and emotional regulation skills. There are apps that can strengthen this skills. There are apps for fine motor skills, visual special skills, eye tracking skills, executive functioning skills, focusing skills (for our ADHD kiddos) as well as practicing spelling, reading, writing, and math skills. I believe iPads are an invaluable tool in the classroom!
