Our school system has gone digital. Each students has their own iPad to utilize at home and school daily. The iPads are wonderful tools to help differentiate and create an individualized learning path based on each student's needs. The school system has encouraged a paperless environment in this digital conversion. I am limited on how many papers I can copy by less than half of the previous year. However, students need good old paper and pencil practice in math to hone in on skills that are developing into more complicated multiplication, long division, and fraction practice. With this project funded, we would be able to continue practicing math skills with paper and pencil, which is how students are tested during benchmarks and at the end of the year. Students need constant practice in order for them to be more successful and master skills. Each night students do a spiral review where they work out questions about the skills we are learning and have previously learned. This review alone uses over 2/3 of my copy allowance. If I were able to print this on the classroom printer, I would be able to create and print more hands on skills that mimic the depth of knowledge they are required to know by the end of the year.
