My Project

As a dedicated teacher, my mission is to create an engaging and effective learning environment for my 6th-grade students. In today’s digital world, technology has become an essential part of education. I am requesting an iPad to help elevate my classroom instruction and provide my students with innovative tools for learning. This device will serve multiple purposes, enabling me to integrate various educational apps and platforms to create a dynamic and interactive learning experience.

One specific tool I am excited to utilize is Plickers—an assessment tool that allows me to quickly and easily assess my students' understanding in real-time.

With Plickers, students can respond to questions using a paper card that I scan with the iPad's camera. This is a game-changer in a classroom where traditional methods of checking for understanding can sometimes be time-consuming and inefficient. Plickers will allow me to instantly see who needs additional support, helping me make adjustments to my teaching on the spot.

Additionally, the iPad will provide my students with access to a range of apps and digital resources that enhance their learning in every subject—I especially need support translating documents in real time. I have had an influx of multilingual learners and my current technology set up does not allow for easy and reliable translations.

The iPad will also support differentiated learning. Whether it’s for students who need additional help or those who are ready for more advanced challenges, technology will allow me to meet the unique needs of every learner in my classroom.

Your generous contribution will make a huge difference in helping me provide a more inclusive, interactive, and impactful education for my students. Thank you for considering my request!
