My Students

An iPad helps connect my students to the outside world and gives them fun opportunities to practice reading and math!

I have a wide range of students, with diverse interests and abilities.

Many come from homes where they do not have access to the current technological advances provided in education these days. Technology is an important tool that I want my students to feel comfortable in utilizing, as it plays an ever more important role now and in the future.

My Project

I want my students to be prepared for the world that awaits them -- and technology is a huge part of that world. With the iPad not only will they be able to maintain their passion for reading but can experience and learn new ways to explore that passion. The opportunities for research, reading, and learning are endless!

Students need to learn not only to use technology, but maximize it's use for their academic improvement!

The iPad offers that to students and gives them practice using technology in a fun way!
