An Apple Brings the World Closer

Help me give my students a path to communication and education in the classroom.

FULLY FUNDED! Ms. Cobb's classroom raised $512

My Students

I am an elementary teacher working with special needs children in a public separate school. My students have severe global delays and many have visual impairments. My students are non-verbal and communicate through using core vocabulary words and various communication devices.

Literacy, math and science are key components in my classroom.

My students respond best to sensory activities and input in their environment through auditory and visual stimuli. I believe that all students deserve to be exposed to various methods of learning.

My Project

I am asking for an iPad bundle to help my students in the classroom setting have exposure to more academic activities. An iPad would especially help my students with visual impairments by giving them opportunities to listen and watch various books and to interact playing games for social and educational purposes. I have been using my personal mini iPad within the classroom with my students.

I have seen their faces light up with joy and have seen increased motivation and participation through using the mini iPad.

It would be wonderful if my students could experience a larger iPad for learning experiences within the classroom setting.
