Ms. Bender from Saint Louis MO is requesting computers & tablets through DonorsChoose, the most trusted classroom funding site for teachers.

iPads for Reading!

My students need an iPad so they can record themselves reading. We will use it to complete running records and access educational apps.

My Students

My students do not have much at home as they come from an area of high poverty. When they come to school, they look forward to the opportunities they have. They love learning and would greatly benefit from additional items coming to our classroom. There are 20 students in our room, and each child is unique and has his own learning needs.

Some of my students come from homes where English is not their primary language so we work on our skills in a variety of ways!

My Project

My students will be able to use iPad to record themselves reading. They can then listen and watch themselves reading aloud. We will use it to create class projects. They will also be able to access varies educational apps. We will be able to access apps that we cannot get on from computers.

It will help my students and parents be able to make observations and improve their reading.

It will provide an easy way to keep reading records on every student and allow parents to observe their child reading. We will also be able to create a class website and post pictures of our learning.
