My Project

This charging station, Osmo and cables will be used to help my students keep their iPads charged and have fun learning in stations. The Osmo will be a great addition in a work station and would make small group instruction even more fun. This charging station is very much needed along with the cables. By keeping my students' iPads charged, they are prepared and engaged in learning in my class.

Since going one-to-one with iPads, my students need the iPads to be ready at all times for instruction and learning and small groups.

There's nothing worse than sitting in a classroom or ready to work in stations and your iPad is not charged. These items will enhance this type of learning by making my class more equitable. Many of my students come from low socio-economic families where education isn't a priority; therefore, I must help them succeed in any way I can whether it be social, emotional, or simply educational learning.
