iPad Minis for All Star Learners

My students need four iPad Minis to become ALL STAR Learners!

My Students

My school is a Title I school in North Florida where most of my students receive free and reduced lunch. We live in a high poverty area and many of my students come from a one parent household. My students are faced with several challenges both in and out of the classroom.

My classroom is comprised of 18 diverse, yet incredibly curious learners who learn best when using technology that can fit their many individual educational needs.

Most of my students do not have access to technology in the home and depend on school to fill this need.

My Project

My students need four iPad Minis to become ALL STAR Learners! Within my class of 18 students there is so much diversity- ethnically, culturally, family socioeconomic status, as well as academically. At my Title I school, there is limited access to computers, especially computers for the classroom. One way to help close the academic gap is to differentiate instruction, which can be done through the many apps and programs available on computers.

My low income students who have limited access to computers at home and at school will use these iPad Minis to practice individual reading and math skills daily in the classroom.

One way my students will use these iPad Minis is during Center Time, where they can practice individual skills in reading and math with differentiated instruction. These iPad Minis will also give my students an opportunity to increase their technology skills in and out of the classroom.
