Having the set of iPads will allow for different structures of learning in my classroom. One way they will be used is as a STEM center. Students can look up pictures of catapults and then design their own using nothing more than Popsicle sticks, rubber bands, and Pom-poms. Another way they will be used is by recording the results of an experiment. They could collaborate on group findings by sharing through SeeSaw, online portfolio. I could download apps for various math practice skills for a math center, which would allow me to have activities for both my highest performing and most struggling students.
Our classrooms are not yet at the level technologically to meet their needs as learners. This grant will help to close that gap just a little bit more.
