Help me give my students iPad tablets to do all the things that will make them successful in this 21st century learning environment.
FULLY FUNDED! Mr. Figueroa's classroom raised $461
This project is fully funded
Celebrating Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month
This project is a part of the Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month celebration because
it supports a Latino teacher or a school where the majority of students are Latino.
My Project
I pride myself in my ability to make all things accessible for my special education students. An iPad device would only add to the AT and instructional technology being used. Students with disabilities can download apps that provide visual, auditory and tactile learning opportunities. It can further their access to audio books and files that they can interact with in a user friendly way that the computer will not provide. My students deserve better access to technology and an iPad will only further their abilities. iPads makes it easy for students to continue learning and developing wherever they are. They can explore powerful interactive apps to help them study, create, have fun and get more done.
Half of students from low‑income households
Data about students' economic need comes from the National Center for Education Statistics, via our partners at MDR Education. Learn more
