The technology savvy students coming to kindergarten in the 21st century require more interactive methods to learn and practice the required reading and math skills. This iPad, along with the many free and inexpensive apps available, will help to provide this interactive opportunity for my students.
My students come from varied backgrounds with varied experiences and levels of reading and math competency.
But, they are all eager to absorb themselves in any technology that is available to them. This iPad mini will enhance their learning experience.
My Project
I am requesting an iPad mini to expand my student's classroom engagement, learning, and fun. The iPad mini will provide an individual, hands-on learning experience for my students. Depending on the app selected, the mini can build fluency, comprehension, and vocabulary for my early readers or assist phonemic awareness and phonics skills for my developing readers. They can provide counting and number recognition for early mathematicians, or addition and subtraction practice for the more advanced math learners. The programs will provide beneficial feedback for individual students and be enjoyed by all students during centers, small group time, and during individual tutoring time.
Each new school year, my students and I are ready to move on with new beginnings and many positive experiences.
Your generous donation will help provide my students with an enticing means to learn and practice the necessary skills to become a successful kindergarten student ready and prepared for the world of first grade in just a few short months.
