My Students

Our middle school is a Title I school and many of the students come from low income families. At our school, 98% of students receive free or reduced price meals. Over 30% of our students receive special education services and many others function well below grade level. The total enrollment is just over 350 students. Our school is transitioning to a STEAM (Science/Technology/ Engineering/Art/Math) model school. Our Low Incidence students have multiple disabilities that impedes their ability to fully participate in the general education setting. However, they enjoy building, learning with technology, and exploring through numerous and diverse activities. The general education population enjoys working with these special students and helping them socialize and grow into active and responsible individuals. However, we lack many of the materials needed for them to access grade level endeavors while working with resources they are able to use.

As our school transitions and students begin to learn coding, our Low Incidence students need a variety of hands-on tools and technology to access programs that will not only support their STEAM learning process but allow them to participate with their peers.

My Project

My students with special needs have difficulty accessing the features on standard computers. Our school uses multiple applications - Clever, iReady, Schoology, Microsoft Teams, IXL along with other applications to help push out our learning format. Setting up applications on the iPad, students can access them easier and with fewer distractions.

The ease of the iPad touch screen allows them to access apps and learning games without the hassle of logging in to multiple sights.

The iPads will also allow my students admittance into online programs that are granting free access during the Covid19 pandemic.
