Our students use technology for both math and reading interventions. My five laptops are old and in order to log into them, 6-year-old students are required to type in a ridiculously large email address, which takes too much time from their center. iPads will help students access math and reading apps that allow them to work at their level. A few iPads in my classroom will allow my students access to technology to continue to grow! The nice thing about iPads is that they can be used with many apps for the higher-level math and reading AND the lower level supporting apps.
