TECHNOLOGIES
The one I would recommend would be the Apple I pad. We have just got I pads at school were I work. We have I pad ones and now I pad two. The teachers I work with and myself all love the I pads. Four activities that I use in my classroom with the I pads would be 1. We hook it up to our smart board and we looked stuff up on health/PE stuff when we are doing any types of health/PE lessons. 2. When we are doing our dance unit we look at dance steps on Youtube and they are played with the I pad through our smarboard screen. 3. I download music to it and we play music through a speaker we have the runs through the Mac computer when we are doing our dance lessons. 4. I use the I pad to help keep up with my students laps that we run every Monday so it is handy for record keeping. I would tell any teacher to get a I pad and use it in their classroom.

I wish our school was more technology savvy. We do good to have a computer lab. We don't have smart boards or any other technology besides regular computers that the kids get to go to for 30 minutes a day. And then, they have specific things they have to do like play math games or language arts games.
ReplyDeleteI'm glad you posted activities that you can do with an IPad. I've never used one, but would love to be able to incorporate it into the classroom!
