  • $4,815 goal

My Project

We need ten iPads, a charging station, and a surge protector to enhance early childhood education by integrating iPads into a preschool classroom in a low-income community, thereby providing students with equitable access to technology and interactive learning tools.

The overall goal of this project is to enhance literacy and numeracy by using age-appropriate apps to support early reading and math skills through engaging, interactive content.

Develop fine motor skills by encouraging hand-eye coordination and fine motor development through touchscreen activities. Support differentiated learning to cater to the individual learning needs of students, including those with special needs and accommodations.
