My Students

In our project based inquiry classroom, access to rich multiple media resources are critical for researching and gathering information as well as preparing documents, reports, and presentations. iPad minis can help us meet this need.

Our classroom is made up 31 amazing, inquisitive, thoughtful, critical thinkers who are eager to learn.

Our students are at different levels. They range from those that are gifted as well as ones with special needs. Their cultural background is rich with as many as 11 different languages spoken besides English. Our school has limited, outdated technology. Our students would benefit from greater access to technology to motivate and guide their learning.

My Project

Teaching and learning through a project based inquiry approach requires access to media as students research, locate information, seek answers to questions, navigate through informational text and create responses to their learning. Students will use iPad minis to explore questions and topics in all content areas to enhance learning. Projects are integrated and thematic with products that engage different learning styles.

John Dewey says, "Education begins with the curiosity of the learner." Funding this project will allow for greater student engagement and allow students to find out what inspires them to be life long learners.
