Mrs. Ripley from Deer Park TX is requesting technology through DonorsChoose, the most trusted classroom funding site for teachers.

Learning is Ipad Crazy!

My students need to be able to learn through technology. With an iPad, they can use the Apps which they see and use at home. There are thousands of learning apps and we could put them to great use.

Celebrating Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month

Celebrate Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month

This project is a part of the Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month celebration because it supports a Latino teacher or a school where the majority of students are Latino.

My Students

Let's change the world 1 app at a time. My students learn well with the technology I use in my classroom. I am asking for an iPad in order to be able to project these apps and help my students learn for the better.

Most of my students go home to parents who can not afford any type of tablet or technology device.

My students love getting on the computers and doing the websites I have set up. Think about how awesome it would be to show the apps on the screen and project them to the class. I can create lessons for them to be able to take home and tell their parents about.

My Project

I plan to download the app that will allow me to project the iPad I am requesting on the screen. We will use the iPad during our intervention time and fully understand the concepts I am teaching. There are thousands of learning apps that we can download for free and project onto the screen for the kids to learn. Each student learns differently and I would love to be able to target the kids that need that technology.

This iPad is so important because I can project it onto the screen and the kids can do any of the games or apps that I have projected.

I can put concepts that are tricky to learn or even have the concepts that specifically need to be reviewed.
