Rancho Viejo Elementary School
This video is designed to help you
better answer some questions that
have been asked of your child’s
teachers.
Rancho, and 7 other schools
within our district received a
great opportunity in November
 “…eight Crane Elementary School District
campuses had been awarded grants from
Apple as a part of the ConnectED program
that will put an iPads in the hand of every
student.” (Crawford, 2014)
Our new mission statement
now includes making a well
rounded, technological literate
student.
What does this mean for your
child?
 iPads
 Consent
 Will have for a minimum of 3 years
 Will be used in class everyday.
 Will make students ready for a
technological world
How could this change our
testing environments?
 Computerized testing next year
 Saves district some money
 More rigorous and challenging for students
 “In a study done by Houghton Mifflin
Harcourt in California showed that
students using iPads saw their math test
scores increase 20% in one year
compared to students using traditional
textbooks. Source: CNN Tech”
(Wainwright)
Why are the iPads
important?
 Differentiated instruction
 Not all students learn on the same level
 Manipulative
 Learn at own pace
 Project based learning
 Multiple learning styles
 “The adaptability of tablets to different
learning styles allow teachers to present a
math concept using a tablet that engages
auditory, visual and kinesthetic learners
simultaneously.” (Lawerence, 2012)
Will the iPads go home?
 NO, at least not for the first year.
 Exception: GAP students, maybe
 We have a great protection program
with Apple.
 Students used to having them school first.
May my child put their own
apps on iPads?
 No
 Teacher, administration, and district will
control the downloading of the apps.
 Only be school appropriate
 Download to icloud to open at home
What if my child breaks,
misplaces, or acts
inappropriately with iPads
 Watch the video on our website
 Students will learn quickly when they lose
their privileges how much it hurts their
learning to not have iPads.
 Can shut down so it is inactive if lost
 Apple support for three years
