Help me give my students an iPad to create, design, and learn on!
FULLY FUNDED! Ms. DeFeo's classroom raised $752
This project is fully funded
Celebrating 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 Project
My students are eager learners. They are so excited about art and I can’t wait to see their faces light up when they see that learning and art can take on many familiar forms. Their love for art will most definitely grow as they learn about digital art. They’ll learn that art isn’t just the traditional skills-based painting and drawing. They'll have access to making digital art using the iPad and accessories. It’ll also make presenting their digital projects seamless.
In addition to creating art and design, this iPad will allow me to better monitor student behavior and progress at the moment, help struggling readers, make learning more engaging through games, apps, and allow students to use programs that promote computational thinking through computer science.
Having an iPad in our classroom would allow us 24/7 access to as many resources as possible. With a classroom made up of 24 different learning styles, we need multiple avenues to create educational success. Thank you in advance for your generosity.
Nearly all students from low‑income households
