Help me give my students an iPad to improve decoding, word learning, language, and literacy skills. There are targeted multi-sensory programs and applications I would like to use to expand their knowledge, since many are English Language learners.
FULLY FUNDED! Ms. Espeut's classroom raised $512

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
I currently work in a low-income neighborhood in the South Bronx as a speech therapist. My elementary school students are working on expanding their vocabulary knowledge to improve oral, written language, and reading comprehension skills.
However, many of my students are struggling decoders with lower literacy skills.
My goal is for students to continue the use of multi-sensory activities to improve targeted skills and overall academic success. A classroom iPad would enable them to explore specific applications across many subject areas including but not limited to English Language Arts, math, and science.
Nearly all students from low‑income households
Data about students' economic need comes from the National Center for Education Statistics, via our partners at MDR Education. Learn more
