The basic building blocks of reading and writing are an essential part of any student genuinely succeeding. We have students who are still working on locking these blocks into their memory. I want to use an iPad to help unlock some of these essential tools for my students. The iPad can be used in a variety of ways to ensure that students are finding success. The iPad can be used to show educational videos, play songs to create a mnemonic device, and practice presentations. Showing instructional videos will be very helpful for visual learners and well as students with reading issues. We will also be able to use this to play textbooks recorded as audio mp3 files for students. We can create mnemonic devices for music as well as dancing to learn different subjects. We can also use apps to help build students' necessary skills with reading and writing apps, so all students feel able.
