My Students

My students currently attend a PreK-8th Grade Title I school. More than 40% of the students in the school are English Language Learners, meaning English is their second language. Many of my students lack life experiences and rarely travel outside of our neighborhood.

When people say that the United States is a melting pot, I believe that my current school is a perfect example of this.

Many of our students come from different countries, and their families are trying to create better lives for them.

Additionally, some of our students are classified both as Language Learners and Students with Disabilities, therefore we have a wide range of learners in our school that can benefit from these funds.

My Project

I am asking for a iPad with cellular data in the hopes that I can connect with students and colleagues on a more stable level. With the amount of technology and services that my students are using we don't always have reliable internet available to us. For example my internet recently was having connection issues and interfered with my ability to teach my students remotely. Having this iPad will allow me to work more consistently with my students and give me an option for when the internet fails. Additionally, this iPad will give me the necessary compatibility with an 2nd Generation Apple Pencil in order to have a more interactive experience while teaching my students remotely. This will specifically be useful for my Students With Disabilities as well as my English Language Learners!
