Staying in Stylus!

My Project

Hello Wonderful Donors!

I am in need of a class set of stylus pens.

Why do my students need stylus pens? Well, this generation of learners do most of their technology learning on iPads, which means they use their iPads for things such as writing. However, they currently must use their finger to write.

If my students had a class set of stylus pens, they could write on their iPads as if they are writing on paper. This will allow for digital work to be written more neatly and for me to be able to assign activities that will require a more precise writing response.

Please help us stay in style with a class set of stylus pens!
