The students were absolutely thrilled that they were able to use these in the classroom and could not wait to get started with the typing program. The students are so familiar with iPads and don't properly use the keypad. This leads to them trying to use the voice to text feature and take away from them actually using their phonics skills to spell and type. Students can now use these keyboards to help them learn the proper positioning and the typing program to help them become familiar with the letter locations. Later in the year, we will use these when the students begin to type reports and stories. I am very grateful that I was able to get a half class set and that only two students have to share a keyboard. The students cannot wait until it is their day when they get to practice using it. It has truly made an impact already and shows how technology can be helpful and fun while learning.","fullyFundedDate":1752506878577,"projectUrl":"project/ipad-keyboards/9321629/","projectTitle":"iPad Keyboards","teacherDisplayName":"Mrs. Lehman","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://storage.donorschoose.net/dc_prod/images/teacher/profile/orig/tp9681353_orig.jpg?crop=1:1,smart&width=272&height=272&fit=bounds&auto=webp&t=1723806845424","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/9681353"},{"teacherId":9681353,"projectId":8666031,"letterContent":"These books have helped my students communicate better and be understanding of others feelings.
