My Project

Small group time is one of the most important parts of our day. It’s when I can work closely with students, whether they need extra help or a bigger challenge. To make this time more effective, I’m asking for several iPad Airs and Pencils. These tools will bring more creativity, support, and flexibility to our small group learning.

With these iPads, students can use interactive apps, take notes, write stories, and practice math in fun, engaging ways.

I’ll use them to give feedback right away, show examples, and track progress. The Pencils are great for drawing, solving problems, and making thinking visible.

Having multiple sets means I can create small group stations where students work independently or with me using technology that supports their learning style. These tools will make a huge difference every day. Thank you for helping us build a classroom where every student gets what they need to succeed!
