My Project

This iPad with give my students the opportunity to use communication apps on the iPad to further develop their communication and promote socialization in our small groups and centers .

Using a classroom communication device will allow me to target specific skills such as socialization where they may need extra support.

This new form of communication can be used through different content areas to help students reach vocabulary that they may not have on their own individual communication device.

I will also be able to use this iPad to take pictures throughout the day of the students interacting within center based activities and send these pictures to their parents to keep them up to date on what their child is learning and their progress.
