Need More Power In Math Class

Help me give my students access to a charging station to support their learning via iPad throughout the lesson.

FULLY FUNDED! Mr. Bishop's classroom raised $274

This project is fully funded

My Project

My goal in teaching is to reduce waste and paper is the main culprit in my Deaf Education Math classroom. I am currently working on shifting my curriculum, resources, and materials via online. All of my students have access to the iPad to use in my classroom. The purpose of teaching electronically is to reduce the waste of papers and at the same time enrich my students' learning experience as there are vast amounts of resources online.

The charging power station will solve the common issue of dead iPads at the beginning/during the class.

I have tried many different approaches such as asking them to prioritize charging their iPad instead of iPhone at their bedtime, charging at their previous class, etc. but no luck. The charging power station will increase the accessibility which will solve my main struggles of shifting to electronically teaching. My students can resume working throughout the learning without moving around the classroom to find the available charging outlet to charge their iPad during learning.
