My students love working with technology in the classroom to enhance their learning! The electronic devices promote instant engagement to reading, language and word work practices for my classroom. They are constantly using it to build upon their comprehension skills by using interactive apps. The electronic devices help to reinforce reading and language sills that they have learned in class! They use these iPads independently and in groups. They are instantly intrigued and engaged with a lesson when they are working on the iPads. Due to the significant loss of iPads, many students will not have the opportunity to participate in classroom activities at the same time. Having more iPads would create an environment with less distraction and more engagement for all students. I have observed when they have a lesson that involves technology, my teaching and their learning benefit greatly. We would be so grateful for your generous donation!
