My students need an iPad to be able to use technology to become better readers.
FULLY FUNDED! Mrs. Remus's classroom raised $537

Celebrating Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month
This project is a part of the Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month celebration because
it supports a Latino teacher or a school where the majority of students are Latino.
My Students
"Don't give up, I believe in you all. A person's a person no matter how small." -Dr. Seuss
I am a firm believer in that all students learn differently, so they all need to be presented the information in different ways.
I would like to give my students access to different resources that will allow them to learn and be successful in school and in life.
My students consist of a diverse population. They range from below-grade level to up to one year above grade level. Our school atmosphere is safe, fun and welcoming to all students along with their parents. I believe that all students have the capability of succeeding in school. I want to provide my students with the best possible learning environment and give them the best first grade experience that I can.
My Project
My students will use the iPads to enhance their daily learning. Having these iPads in the classroom would have a huge impact on student growth. The tablets will be used in numerous ways. First, students will use them during differentiated, center time. During this time, students will use educational apps to increase individual and peer learning. They will be working on sight word fluency, phonics, spelling, reading comprehension, addition and subtraction fluency, calendar, telling time, and place value all of which are supported by our State Standards.
The iPads will also be a great addition to assist with expanding our reading, science and social studies curriculum.
For example, we will use them to complete numerous research projects throughout the school year. Students work together to research different aspects of our magnet curriculum, for example to learn about the vast continent of Africa.
iPads in the classroom will have a huge impact on student achievement in all subject areas. They look forward to the engaging AND educational games they can play independently or with peers. Students who are motivated will take the most away from their learning.
More than a third of students from low‑income households
Data about students' economic need comes from the National Center for Education Statistics, via our partners at MDR Education. Learn more
