Mrs. Craven from Lexington NC is requesting technology through DonorsChoose, the most trusted classroom funding site for teachers.

I is for iPad, K is for Kindergarten!

My students need two iPad Minis to use for improving reading and math skills. These iPads will give them more opportunities for differentiated instruction.

My Students

Engaging, inspiring, and changing the way we approach student learning! iPads for reading and math put technology and learning in the hands of students. My students are inspired by technology and thrive from the use of it. These iPads will give them more opportunities for differentiated instruction.

My school is located in a very small town and we are a Title One school.

I have the privilege of providing my students with their first school experience. I want to make it an interesting and engaging experience for every one of my students. I need help in equipping my classroom with technology that will help my students become better readers and improve their math skills.

My Project

The iPad is an incredible tool that has the potential to change the way teachers teach and students learn. Students in my classroom will use both iPads as a tool for learning. They will be able to use it during math and literacy centers. I will also be using it during small group instruction. All of my students will be able to work within applications that meet their needs. If a student is struggling in one area, I will be able to have that student work on a certain concept on the iPad. Each child is unique and has a different learning style. These iPads will give the students the opportunity to have more differentiated learning. Students will learn valuable 21st century skills with the iPad, which will better equip them for their future. The iPad is an important tool for meeting the needs of today's students and engaging them in 21st century skills.

By supporting my classroom, you will forever change the lives of my kindergarten students.

You will put learning in the hands of the students. They will be able to practice more skills that are learned in school. Each child will be able to complete different learning activities that suite them in reading and math. I want nothing more than to give my students more opportunities for technology.
