Goal

This IPAD will help my students be able to more easily access the STAR Early Literacy assessment. My Pre-K D students take the STAR Early Literacy assessment 3 times per year. During this time, they have to take the assessment on a touch screen laptop. Due to limited fine motors skills, they have difficulty navigating the laptop in order to complete the assessment. They will often accidentally minimize the screen or log out of the test entirely. The keyboard also creates distractions and they may select the incorrect answer due to wanting to simply push buttons on the keyboard.

What will be done with my students

The IPAD will be used when administering the STAR Early Literacy assessment.  

 

Benefits to my Students

Using the IPAD will help to reduce distractions while taking the STAR Early Literacy assessment. They will not accidentally log out of the test or minimize the screen of the laptop due to limited fine motor skills. The goal is for students' STAR Early Literacy scores to increase due to limited distractions around them from the computer screen and keyboard. 

 

Budget Narrative

Funds will be used to purchase an iPad, protective case, headphones, and stylus.
