With having a lot of struggling readers at our school we were lucky enough to get a grant for 20 Ipads in which to download some researched based programs/apps that improve reading skills. These iPads are for students and will remain in their hands so that they can practice and improve their reading ability and be at grade level by the end of third grade. However we were not able to use any grant money for covers and unfortunately our school budget is very tight. The iPads will go to kindergartners through third graders, and we can't give them out without some sort of protection.
You can imagine how long iPads would last without protection in the hands of five-nine-year-olds! We want to get them out to the students as soon as possible, but need to get those covers on. Thank you so much for helping these readers get to grade level by the end of third grade. Teamwork​ makes the dream work!
