Others are using the iPad for interactive literacy and foundational skills practice, allowing them to learn in ways that feel accessible, motivating, and tailored to their needs.\r\n\r\nThe impact has been immediate: students are more engaged, more confident, and more willing to take risks in their learning. The iPad has opened doors for them — not just academically, but socially, as they use it to communicate with peers during group work, lunch, and recess.\r\nYour support didn't just provide a device. It gave my students a voice, a sense of agency, and a tool that helps them show what they know.
