My classroom includes 24 sweet second graders. Of the 24 students, there are many different learning styles that make up the student population. Our school is a Title 1 school. So for many of the students, school is the only place they have access to technology. My students are technology driven and an iPad offers that. iPads are great motivators for students. They are very eager to learn and using an iPad would motivate them even more. As a teacher, I want my students to be lifelong learners. I believe the iPad will help each student.
