Furthering Education Through Technology

Help me give my students the ability to utilize the iPad to further their reading and math skills.

FULLY FUNDED! Mrs. Shanafelt's classroom raised $454

My Project

This iPad will be used to during lessons to go over steps of solving certain problems. An iPad would work best as I can save these as notes for my special education students to access after the lesson is over as I would have a way post these to their Google Classroom. I can also use the iPad during their academic support classes to further their math skill or their reading skills by accessing apps that their Chromebook couldn't allow them to access. This will increase their abilities in all areas of their education.
