My students do not have an effective curriculum that meets their individual needs. By receiving iPads, my students will be able to explore different applications and programs that are designed to meet their individual needs. Coming from a high poverty area, many of my students do not have the opportunity to utilize technology at home. By providing my students with the opportunity to explore technology as well as learn in the process, I will better be able to help my students become successful. These iPads will help the students explore hands on mathematic programs that will help them develop number identification, counting skills, and addition and subtraction skills. My goal is for my students to enjoy learning and look forward to coming to school every day.
