iPads in Action
- Using the Phonto app to create images with accompanying text. These can be used for descriptive writing to add a visual element, or even in science lessons to document what students take pictures of (insects, plant life, etc.)
- Having students use art apps such as Drawing Pad to bring art into the classroom at anytime. Kids can be creative with drawings or paintings and can share them among each other.
- Creating a classroom blog using WordPress. Generating and understanding digital content will be imperative for students moving forward. This is a simple way to share ideas and media within the classroom.
- Record presentations with the built-in camera. Students can deliver presentations on any topic while the iPad records and saves the presentation. Students can then review the video with the teacher to get a better understanding of their strengths and weaknesses.
