The iPads will serve as a tool to enhance small-group instruction, allowing me to provide intervention and differentiated instruction to the students. They will also use them independently and in small groups to enhance their educational learning experience. The completion of this project will create a more effective learning environment for my students in the classroom. This will allow my students to be more engaged and become active participants in their education. This will also instill a love for learning which is essential in kindergarten. I hope for all of my students to become life long learners, even outside of the classroom.
