Goal

A couple of my goals are to teach my students about Photoshop and help my less creative students be more creative and find enjoyment in the arts and further their creativity, which extends to all other aspects of life. It is also a great tool to push my more creative students to a new level and to learn about other industries that involve art; some amazing jobs could include web page design, graphic design, photography  

 

What will be done with my students

With the Ipads and pencils I will have my 6th, 7th, and 8th graders create their own sticker. Depending on my class size, I would like my middle school students to learn how to blend colors using the iPad and create their own Salvador Dali picture.

When we are using other materials I will have my students use the iPad for research as well as for students who finish early on an assignment. I do hope to have my 5th graders begin learning the basics on them as well.

This school year I plan on having an after school Art Club and I know the students love creating on the iPads, and then printing off their perfected piece.  

 

Benefits to my students

Many of my students come from low income families and their is no possibility of getting something like this at home. My goal is to have them create with technology and learn that you can do more than write papers with technology. It also tends to help my students that are not great at drawing to draw something successfully. This really helps with their self esteem.  

 

Budget Narrative

4 iPads and apple pencils to go with them. The cases are to protect the iPads. In the past I have had to pay tax because I am purchasing these items and not the school, and I have had to pay the tax out of pocket in the past.
