Help me give my students iPads so that they can be exposed to a new world of mathematics and literacy within mathematics. Since they have limited materials, and resources these ipads will open them to a new avenues.

My Students
I love that I teach in a very diverse community and I'm able to reach so many different learners who have unique and special qualities all their own. There are times where I find myself learning from my students. It always amazes me how eager my students are to learn, and how many times they come into school excited to share their lives with me. When my students are exposed to technology, like ipads and computers they are so engaged, and so sad at the same time when they realize we only have one for the classroom, and most do not have them at home. I love that I can share so many new things with them in school and see how excited they are to come to school.
My Project
We currently have both mathematic and reading programs that have applications on iPads that support student growth and learning. These applications are in mathematics, science, and literacy. The problem is, as a Title I school, we have no iPads. This is causing the students to be limited in their learning. Also, being in a low income area, our school is also the only environment where some children are even exposed to technology at all.
I want these ipads to make sure my students are exposed to all they can be so they can live to their best potential now and forever.
Nearly all students from low‑income households
