Students will use the iPad to turn poems into songs allowing students to connect two types of art. This device provides students the ability to create songs based on poetry and prose using preloaded instruments or real instruments in the garage band app. This will expose students to a new perspective of literature as well as music. It will be used to gain an understanding of literature. The iPad will also provide much needed STEM activities the often don't get to incorporate in English class. The iPad can be paired with the Smartboard for class presentations as well as other multimedia projects.
