Help increase student's reading abilities and comprehension. Mini iPads will be used in the classroom as reading centers to boost student's reading capabilities and their understanding of the content. Students would no longer need to wait to use our classroom's one outdated desktop computer. Many apps can be loaded on the iPads for free after the iPads purchase. Due to large classroom size and limited funding the students would be able to use these iPads independently to monitor and aid their reading fluency and comprehension while I am pulling small reading groups. This would greatly help get more access to free online books in students hands.
