My first grade students are excited and happy little learners from diverse backgrounds. More than 90% of students in our school district come from below the poverty line and 100% of students in our school receive free breakfast and lunch. Despite the challenges many of my students face, they amaze me with their excitement and energy for learning. They enter the classroom each morning with smile on their faces and my favorite question on the tips of their tongues: “What are we going to learn today?” I feel very fortunate to get the opportunity to help students not only learn the content, but develop a love for learning.
My Project
My students love to share all they have learned and created, especially when it comes to what they have accomplished using the iPads! To utilize the iPads to their fullest extent students need to be able to share, collaborate, and move around the classroom safely. As great as students are with technology accidents do still happen.
With the right protective cases/covers a dropped iPad can be picked right back up and learning can be continued.
In order for this to happen our class needs the iPads to be protected in kid friendly covers/cases and to have a safe place for them to be stored and charged for daily use.
With safe and secure iPads students will be able to take their learning on the go! They will do QR code scavenger hunts, read/listen to books all around the room and even bring the iPads outdoors to compare and extend their learning. Students will benefit greatly from the freedom that goes with safe and protected iPads.
