My Students

My students are used to having a routine. They need visual reminders to assist them throughout their day. I would like to see my students succeed throughout their life. I want my students to work independently to achieve success. The biggest challenge for my students is not having enough resources.

My students are very loving kindergartners and first graders.

We work in a twelve, one, one setting. We are in a low income neighborhood and often do not get all the resources we need. My students are full of energy to learn. My students need rewarding reinforcers to help engage learning. They are very tech savvy, but lack enough iPads in the classroom. Having an in-class iPad would increase class engagement and interest.

My Project

My students will use the iPad to help engage learning. They depend on visuals throughout the day. Having an in-class iPad would allow for students to work independently while being engaged in learning. The iPad can be a very rewarding and motivating resource to better my students' education.

Donations for this project would be very beneficial for my students' engagement in school and learning.

Having an in-class iPad would increase their knowledge of the technological world. Having an iPad would provide success for my students' education.
