My Project

This project seeks funding for an iPad to enhance mental health education and digital safety in my self-contained ELA classroom. This tool will empower students to navigate technology responsibly while building essential skills for managing mental well-being in a digital world. The iPad will allow us to demonstrate mental health apps, privacy features, and digital well-being tools directly on the smart board, making it easier for students to follow along and apply these practices on their phones and other devices in and out of the classroom.

The device will support lessons on online safety, teaching students to make informed choices that protect their mental health in the digital world.

By integrating the iPad into our curriculum, we will empower students with the tools they need to navigate technology responsibly and develop lifelong strategies for mental wellness.

My students have been placed in self-contained classrooms for many reasons and each of them have diverse learning needs. Our school is always willing to try new technology but we do not have the funding to update our current technology. By helping fund this project, I can show my administration how useful having just 1 tablet per classroom can be for many years to come.
