Help me give my students an opportunity to learn proper writing skills by providing an Apple Pencil so that I can correctly model letter formation for students on the iPad.
FULLY FUNDED! Ms. Romero's classroom raised $186

Celebrating Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month
This project is a part of the Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month celebration because
it supports a Latino teacher or a school where the majority of students are Latino.
My Students
My students are excellent little humans who are eager to learn. Many of them log into our Zoom class every morning, excited to learn and to see their classmates. They enjoy practicing their reading and writing skills every day.
My students need so much modeling and practice in writing.
Typing on tablets is not enough for them. Watching me type on a tablet is not sufficient for them either. They need to watch proper letter formation, and unfortunately, they do not receive that from me writing on the screen with my finger or typing.
My Project
An Apple Pencil would allow me to model instruction correctly on an iPad when I am teaching through zoom. Instead of struggling to write with precision using my fingers, I would be able to write seamlessly like I would with a regular pencil and paper.
It is important that my first graders continue to receive proper modeling of what writing should look like.
With the Apple Pencil, I would be able to manipulate my writing on the tablet they way I would in the classroom so that my students can see what writing should look like.
Nearly all students from low‑income households
