The students have been excited to use it for a variety of different assignments in class. For one, the children had to write a fictional story for Language Arts. They used AI with Google Gemini to bring their stories to life. They were able to view their stories on the iPad for review. The students also had the option to draw certain pictures for their story, so using the Apple Pencil along with the iPad was beneficial when using the Autodraw app. Finally, for certain struggling students, they could go on the iPad and do some tailored lessons on iReady.\r\nThe students are most excited to have some one on one time with the iPad, whether it be finishing up a project or doing some review lessons.\r\nAll students warmed up to the device, for it is something very familiar to them, as most have a tablet device at home. The kinesthetic learners probably benefitted most from using the iPad.","fullyFundedDate":1771719278994,"projectUrl":"project/teaching-with-technology/10109277/","projectTitle":"Teaching with Technology","teacherDisplayName":"Mrs. Lee","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://cdn.donorschoose.net/images/placeholder-avatars/272/teacher-placeholder-7_272.png?auto=webp","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/8826753"},{"teacherId":10294710,"projectId":10109301,"letterContent":"On behalf of my speech therapy students and myself, I'd like to express my sincerest gratitude and appreciation for your generous donations.
