My students are diligent workers who have struggles with receptive and expressive language skills. These iPads requested will allow me to use receptive and expressive language programs to individualize instruction and reward time for students on my caseload. The language programs will allow my students to improve their basic concept skills, improve vocabulary skills and help to comprehend stories and texts as presented by the programs utilized. The COVID-19 Pandemic has caused students on my caseload to fall farther behind their peers in their academic, communicative and social skills. The incentives I have asked for are items that are highly motivating to my students and they will work to earn such rewards. Being able reward students with items that they want and will work for can be very costly so this project will allow me the ability to reward them more frequently with things they have requested.
