The price of iPads runs around $500. The learning stemmed from it? PRICELESS! As a teacher, I see how iPads set a great tone for technology in the classroom. Whether connected to a projector or used in centers, I know we would benefit from one. If measured, the outcome of its use is truly priceless!
At this time, I am teaching 1st grade after spending many years as a 4th grade team teacher.
At this time, like my students, I am learning as I go. As you may imagine, my 6 and 7 year old students are a constant bundle of energy and always who love using technology tools. Our school is one in the district who strives for technology resources in our classroom. Each year, we have school tech campaigns to try and help ourselves gain more technology for our students.
My Project
Technology in the classroom is now a must. As educators, I believe we should be able to offer more technology rich lessons to all students daily. With an iPad air and keyboard, I know I could do just that. With the use of a classroom iPad, I know my students could work in an independent iPad center to assist them with all subjects. My main focus, however, would be with reading and math. I know I could use our school iPad web page to readily find powerful reading and math apps to help with learning, as well as to help lessen gaps in specific subject areas. My agenda would also include combining technology resources for our students to be productive. With a Splashtop app on the iPad, I could combine my interactive whiteboard, projector and iPad to offer productive whole class experiences, as well.
As a teacher, I see how iPads set a great tone for technology in the classroom.
Whether connected to a projector or used in centers, I know we would benefit from one. If measured, the outcome of its use is truly priceless! I could use this game changer device as an additional technology resource for my 1st graders. We know the price of iPads run around $500. The learning stemmed from it? PRICELESS! Your consideration in offering this "priceless" experience would deeply be appreciated!
