Integration Idea

More broad, non app specific ideas for using the iPad in the classroom. Teach Your Parents! Have your students pick something that they learned today and teach their parent about it. Maybe they learned how to tell time in math class, or learned about the Big Dipper in Science class. Have them use the iPads to take pictures or screen grabs that will help them teach their parents. They can then take their pictures and put them in an app such as iMovie or Educreations and provide narration for their pictures. They can then take their final product and see if they can teach their parents! Assignment Reflection Have students do a quick reflection after an assignment or project. Maybe you did a science experiment. Kids can use the iPads during the experiment to take pictures. After you are done with the experiment, have the students make a reflection with the pictures they took explaining what they did, why they did it, and what the outcome was. They can use apps such as iMovie, Educreations, etc to show their work. Completed projects can be emailed, or shared on a class website. Reading Progress Use an app such as iRecorder to have your students record themselves reading. Keep track of their progress and have the files on hand to share with parents over email or at parent/teacher conferences so they can hear their progress. It is a lot easier for parents and students to hear their progress this way than to hear you talk about them reading and X words per minute.
