They allow me to work through problems, annotate examples, and model student thinking in real time while moving around the room instead of being tied to the board. This has made lessons more interactive and has helped me give students more immediate, visual feedback when they are working through challenging problems.\r\n\r\nMy students especially enjoy seeing their own work and different solution strategies displayed and discussed as a class. I have also noticed that some students who are usually hesitant to participate are more willing to share when their work can be shown and discussed without putting them directly on the spot. It has been wonderful to see the technology help build both engagement and confidence.\r\n\r\nI am incredibly grateful for this donation. The iPad and Apple Pencil are helping me make math more visual, interactive, and accessible for my students every day.","fullyFundedDate":1779128514607,"projectUrl":"project/bringing-math-to-life-with-technology/10287302/","projectTitle":"Bringing Math to Life with Technology","teacherDisplayName":"Mrs. Barnes","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://storage.donorschoose.net/dc_prod/images/teacher/profile/orig/tp10510384_orig.png?crop=1:1,smart&width=272&height=272&fit=bounds&auto=webp&t=1779718941760","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/10510384"}],"pageName":"schoolpage_25634","usesDonorsChoose":true,"infoPageType":"school","demographicsInfo":{"numStudents":1535,"numTeachers":65,"percentFrplEligible":19,"percentAsian":14,"percentBlack":2,"percentWhite":59,"percentIndigenous":0,"percentLatinx":19,"showFreeAndReducedPriceLunchInfo":true,"showDemographicsInfo":true,"sourceTooltipString":"the National Center for Education Statistics","percentHawaiianImputed":0,"percentMultiracialImputed":3,"gradesServed":"9 - 12","studentTeacherRatio":"23.6:1","demographicsDataSource":"MDR School","equityFocus":false,"titleOne":false,"metroType":"RURAL","ncesMetroType":"RURAL_FRINGE"},"inStateSupporters":null,"schoolId":25634,"financialInfo":null,"twitterShareText":"Learn more about Central High School on @DonorsChoose:","schoolName":"Central High School","canonicalPageUrl":"schools/illinois/central-community-unit-school-district-301/central-high-school/25634"}
