My classroom consists of 24 students with several different cultural diversities. These students come from low income families, where 70% of the students qualify for free or reduced lunch. Several of the students in my classroom do not have the "extras" at home such as Internet, cable, or any technology devices. The students in my classroom are the sweetest children you will ever meet. If you were to walk in our school, they would greet you and ask you how your day has been. The students take great pride in our school and pride in their learning. They are constantly thinking of new things that we can do to improve not only our classroom, but our school as well. Being a teacher, I want to do anything and everything I can to show the students what they can do and what is available for them to help increase their learning. I know that my students would be forever thankful for any help that we would receive in getting these iPads for our classroom!
