STEAM Art-Pads

Help me give my students iPads to research and create their STEAM projects.

FULLY FUNDED! Ms. Wawa's classroom raised $1,612

My Students

My school is situated in a high poverty area. The buildings are old but are organized as a pleasant open-air space. The school is populated by 400 vivacious children who are mild-mannered and eager to learn.

Our school has been awarded a STEAM certification designation despite the many challenges that our students are facing.

Most of the students in our school are English language learners.

However, hands-on learning surpasses any language barriers. The students are excited about learning robotics, programming 3D printing, coding and more of the like. They are challenged to learn to work together and solve problems as a team.

My Project

My students are always asking for computers, laptops or iPads to help them conduct the necessary research that will lead into creating their STEAM (Science Technology Engineering Art Math) projects. The only problem is that I only have available one working student computer dated from 1996 assigned by the school district.

It is imperative to get iPads for the students to conduct necessary research and have access to informative material to successfully complete their STEAM projects.

In this day and age, especially during a pandemic, it is a real roadblock to not have access to computers in a classroom.

Most of my projects are STEAM based. Moreover I use the SMAR model to integrate technology in all my lessons. How can I do this without technology?
