My Project

The ipad mini will help my students research different ways of being heathy. The ipad mini will let them research the internet to find different ways and help them learn different ways of being heathy. It will also help them research the different foods that are unhealthy and what foods to eat instead.

The students will also use the iPad to build presentations to help inform other students about being healthy.

The presentations will also help them prepare for college and how different ways of presentation can help benefit people.
