Many of my students had writing goals listed in their IEPs; however, writing involves more than just paper and pencil. Several of my students required additional support when using writing utensils, so I looked at more functional and independent modes for written expression, which included typing. Students began to explore keyboards, and since this was a new skill being introduced, it was helpful to do so on a familiar device such as an iPad. Having iPads with attached keyboards that were strictly for writing instruction provided students with a more appropriate outlet to express their thoughts when fine motor delays impacted their handwriting ability.
