My Students

Please help bring technology into my classroom. My classroom consists of eighteen third grade students. We have three computers that are currently being used by all students. The students love using technology and I hope to offer them a greater variety of learning opportunities using the requested iPad minis.

My students love using technology, but most of them do not have technology resources at home.

I would love to give my students the opportunity to experience technology in our classroom! My students are eager learners and love to explore. Our school focuses on learning in engaging, active, and innovative ways.

My Project

I am requesting two iPad minis to use throughout the day in all subjects. We will use the iPads to create stories, research projects, practice math problems, and enhance our learning in science and social studies. Since the students in my classroom are performing on a variety of different grade levels, the use of an iPad will allow instruction to be individually differentiated for each child. With the use of an iPad, all students will receive extra support to help them achieve their goals.

The iPads will expand learning in all areas because students can use a wide variety of apps.

The use of iPads will make the class more interactive and fun! The iPads will allow students to gain exposure to technology within the classroom.
