Having iPads in our classroom will allow my students to continue to broaden their horizons. Several of them are well below grade level and there are many apps on the iPad that the students can use to help them achieve grade level skills in both reading and math. This will allow the students to gain experience with the technology that can be afforded to them. For example, students that struggle with writing skills are able to talk into the iPad and have the iPad write their assignments for them. The iPad has limitless capabilities and applications that can enhance the success of my third grade students. You can reach out from the comfort of your home and impact the education of countless young minds, who are our future and backbone of our nation's success. Your generous donation of any amount will positively influence the education of hundreds of Philadelphia students for years to come.
