iLove iPads

We are definitely lovestruck with the iPads! If you haven't heard, we each have our own iPad in our classroom this year. You guessed it...that means even more digital projects and sharing. Everyday we spend time learning, creating and innovating on the iPads and we are loving it! We love using the iPads as a digital resource for reading and showing our reading thinking. Students have discovered reading on Epic! which is the Netflix of books. We have even been making our own sight word books (complete with our very own pictures and voices).

1st graders have been taking their math assessments on the iPads using Google Forms. We have even utilized the iPads as digital white boards to practice number bonds, forming our letters, practice Fundations sounds, numbers and number words.

This isn't even the best part...each first grader has their very own google drive. Students have been uploading their reading thinking, digital projects and math work. We have learned to take pictures, crop pictures, record our thinking and upload to our drives. Yes, this teacher is VERY impressed. Stop by Room 116 and ask us to see our drives.

As you can tell we are simply in love!
