As in most of today's age, most of my students are more engaged when they are able to interact with some type of technology. In the past, when I was able to use the computers for instruction, the children loved it. They were engaged and they were able to use programs which helped improve their fact fluency in mathematics. In reading, they were able to improve their reading levels by using the ebooks or other programs like lexia. I also have a diverse set of abilities in my classroom.
All of my students have special needs, and using the iPad or some other digital tool is another incentive that they love. Often many of my students choose this as their reward for when they have done well. However, I am very limited with my technology in my classroom. I have one iPad that my students have to share. Also, it is not so easy to gain access to the computer cart. Therefore, it would be very beneficial and meaningful for my students to have access to more tablets.
