An iPad in the classroom will allow students to conduct group-like research during English Language Arts literature circles. Fifth graders need a jump start in researching with the use of technology to help prepare them for future research projects. I will use this to teach them how to research authors of literary text used in the classroom which will help them make connections to real-life connections to the world.
