My Project

I teach an amazing group of indigenous students. I’m from the same area and want my scholars to receive all of the opportunities to enrich their learning. The iPads will be available for my students to use them in a blended learning environment. The majority of the time the iPads will be used by students to engage with reading apps, math apps, STEAM and to play instructional games to help combat learning loss due to COVID. Students will use iPads for instructional reading programs that are individualized to meet student needs.

When starting the program students take a placement test and are placed at their instructional level.

They then work through instruction at their own pace and are able to level up as they go! Students will have the ability to play instructional games that reinforce the concepts students are learning in fun and engaging ways. It would be a great reward for all their hard work!
