My Project
As a 9th grade English Language Arts teacher, I am always looking for new ways to make learning more engaging and effective for my students. I am writing to request funding for three new iPads for our classroom. These devices would have a powerful impact on how my students interact with literacy, allowing them to learn in ways that feel both fun and meaningful.
With the addition of iPads, students will be able to work in small groups using educational apps and games designed to build vocabulary, improve spelling, and strengthen communication skills.
These interactive tools will allow students to take ownership of their learning and support one another as they explore language in dynamic and creative ways.
Rather than relying solely on traditional methods, the iPads will make our classroom a more exciting and collaborative space. My goal is to help students not only improve their literacy skills, but also to enjoy the process. I truly believe that these iPads will help create an environment where students are more motivated, confident, and enthusiastic about reading and writing.
Thank you for considering this request to support our classroom and our learners.
