My Project

In our early childhood classrooms, we strive to foster a love of learning and exploration in our young students. One of the ways we are encouraging curiosity and creativity is by integrating technology into our lessons, specifically through the use of iPads. These devices allow our students to engage with nature, explore their surroundings, and document their findings by taking photos. By capturing images of objects in nature, students have the opportunity to develop important skills, such as recognizing and categorizing objects, identifying attributes, and even using their photographs as tools for storytelling.

However, as with any tool, the effectiveness of iPads in the hands of young learners depends heavily on their accessibility and durability.

Currently, the lack of protective cases for our iPads has made it difficult for students to use them independently and safely. The devices are small and slippery, and students often struggle to hold them securely. This not only hinders their ability to explore and document, but it also creates safety concerns when they move around the classroom or outdoors. As a result, we are seeking funding for protective iPad cases that will enable our students to fully engage in this enriching educational experience.
