With the Apple Pencil, students can now solve problems from the comfort of their desks while projecting their work for the entire class to see. This has made learning more interactive and collaborative, as everyone can follow along in real time.\r\n\r\nThe most exciting part for students is being able to write neatly on the iPad and instantly see their work on the big screen. Many students who are usually shy about going to the front of the class now feel more confident sharing their thinking because they don't have to leave their seats. One student in particular has told me how much easier it feels to participate this way, and I've noticed them volunteering more often during lessons.\r\n\r\nThese tools are not only keeping students focused, but also helping every voice in the classroom be seen and heard.","fullyFundedDate":1752844973179,"projectUrl":"project/from-case-to-creativity-secure-learning/9404004/","projectTitle":"From Case to Creativity Secure Learning","teacherDisplayName":"Ms. Zavala","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://storage.donorschoose.net/dc_prod/images/teacher/profile/orig/tp8168430_orig.jpg?width=272&height=272&fit=bounds&auto=webp&t=1692709346111","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/8168430"},{"teacherId":9653766,"projectId":9160921,"letterContent":"A sincere thank you to all who donated!

Students also have folders and binders to keep their work neat and easy to find when they need during work times in class, or taking work home for homework.\r\n\r\nI was also able to gift some supplies to a teacher who was short on the basics to start school.

Ensuring that every student has a pencil has been transformative for my classroom. It might seem like a small thing, but it makes a huge difference.

Before, I had to constantly pause the lesson to find supplies or get students settled, and the rhythm of class suffered. Now, with pencils always available, students come in ready to engage right away. Lessons flow more smoothly, transitions are quicker, and the overall atmosphere feels calmer and more focused.

They can check their work instantly, try problems multiple ways, and get extra practice whenever they need it. The iPad also allows students to work at their own pace, which is especially helpful for those who need extra support or who want to challenge themselves with more advanced problems.\r\n\r\nHaving this technology has changed the way students approach learning.
