Case Studies
iCan Read with the iPad
At Jefferson Elementary in Kings Canyon Unified, students in Ms. Alvis’ second grade class used an iPad to improve reading fluency and comprehension. One of the excersises the students did was Reader's Theater, which allowed the children to practice a play in small groups and then their performance was recorded and shown to the class on the Starboard. They loved seeing themselves on the big screen! The children also used the iPad at Reading Workshop time navigating through the many educational apps. that I have provided for them.

Using the iPad in the classroom helped the children improve their reading fluency and comprehension, which was evident in the weekly classroom assessments.
