My Students

Having the advantage of powerful technology tools in our classroom truly can enhance the learning experiences. As a new technology tool, iPads are proving to be an asset to students. I know having a class iPad, in combination with many free apps, would make my 2nd graders extremely happy!

I am currently a 2nd grade teacher at a Pre K-5th grade school.

This is my 3rd year at this school and I am impressed with wonderful parental support system here. Our school has more than 500 students at this time. I teach all subject areas. I love incorporating technology into the curriculum.

My Project

Obviously, for any teacher, a key component is knowing the importance of individual student levels. With the use of 3 iPads, my students could work in independent ELA (English Language Arts) iPad centers to increase reading levels or focus on weak areas when needed. I recently learned that our school has its own iPad Website set up. I would use free apps to help my students in centers and also in a whole group setting. If connected to a projector and interactive whiteboard using an Apple Dock VGA adapter, we could use the iPad as a group. I have no doubt the students would enjoy positive and effective interactive apps that are readily available online. It is a win-win situation. A trio of class iPad minis with cases would make happy 2nd graders! My goal is to create an iPad center with apps that encourage reading, math, social studies and art. As a teacher, I love "Empowering Students Through Art." This would help my creative students with academics, as well as daily art activities.

As I said earlier, I believe that a trio of class iPads combined with many free apps would make my 2nd graders extremely happy and would be utilized for effective ELA lessons.

With iPads and apps, there are so many options for classroom activities. Your consideration in making a donation to help my students would be appreciated!
