Our school is located in a rural high poverty area of the county. The students come from diverse backgrounds and many have experienced more in their short lives than any human being (young or old) should have to encounter.
Many of my students have challenging circumstances but they do not let that stop them in trying to reach their goals each and every day.
Building a sense of community and normalcy by providing students with an idea of a future beyond their current living situation is our main priority. We want to open students eyes to the big world around them and show them how they can be successful in it.
My Project
My students need iPads and iPad cases. Having more iPads in the classroom will extend learning beyond the classroom, improve collaboration, engage students, enhance personalized learning, and prepare students for future careers.
Classroom technology, like iPads, are vital in getting students involved with learning in the world they exist.
Our students struggle with understanding subjects that they do not have background knowledge on. These iPads will be used to help develop students understanding of several different topics such as Science, Math, Social Studies, coding, and simply just understanding the world around them. Each discovery they make with the iPads will make a lasting contribution to their future.
