Providing iPads to my class will open an opportunity for students that do not speak English to participate in daily instruction. I rely on my iPhone daily to translate what I am saying so all students have access to instruction. This means I am often translating each lesson to over 10 languages. Through the use of an iPad, my students will have access to hundreds of apps and websites that will be able to translate daily instruction.
Having iPads available, will allow for student independence and will provide non-English speakers the confidence to share their ideas. I want all students to feel included and through the use of technology, that is possible.
