My great students have really enjoyed playing games on the I Pads!! The educational games are great for center time. They have even made reading a lot more fun. I simply took pictures of there reading pages. What a difference reading is when reading it off of something they think is so cool!! Watching their excitement, makes my uncomfortableness with technology all worth it :)
We have been using the computers all month to gather sources to begin writing an essay. Time consuming but fun.
The last few months, I have been trying hard to expand my knowledge in technology. My students have explored the use of the I Pads. They love them. It's amazing to see students with a low attention span stay so focused. The only downside is not having access to the internet....In time!!!
