Learning And Developing Self-Worth Through Art Part-1

Funded Oct 5, 2014

It has been an amazing experience to bring the ipad into the classroom and observe my students flourish. They were extremely excited when they saw the new technology that would be available for them to use in the classroom daily. The ipad benefited my students in a variety of ways. The biggest change I observed was motivation in my students. They work hard for time on the ipad and are focused when using the ipad in small groups. My students eyes brighten up when the ipad is at the kidney table and its a wonderful feeling to know they are excited to learn.

My students are always looking forward to time working in small groups with the ipad or time with a partner using art applications. The art applications have been extremely useful in teaching students to identify colors, shapes, numbers, letters, sorting, and patterns. The music applications has been successful in supporting my students in calming down. The ipad has also been helpful in the classroom by providing students an opportunity to work independently.

Overall I am grateful for your support. Your donations have made my classroom a more functional and educational setting for my students. My students are able to focus for longer periods of time and are eager to learn because of your support in providing useful tools in my classroom. Thank you for providing a versatile tool to meet the variety of needs my students possess.”

With gratitude,
