This library serves 550 students. We currently have six iPads. I would like enough iPads so that students can work in pairs. Most classes have 22 students. We use iPads to code using robotics and apps. We use iPads with QR codes to discover more about our world and our library. Even our youngest students can use the iPads for drag and drop coding. We will use the iPads for Maker Space events and collaboration lessons with teachers. As the librarian, I can also use them for staff development with the staff to help them bring more technology and coding into their classrooms.
