Today we had our learning design coach, Mr. Slaubaugh, come into our room to help us become more familiar with the ipads and introduced us to an ipad app called popplet. It was a great introductory lesson and the kids did great. I paired them up and gave them an ipad. After talking about the app and what I wanted them to do, I gave them each a letter of the alphabet and their job was to go around the room looking for things that started with that letter and take a picture of it. They all did a fantastic job and here are a few examples...
For the letter D they found our friend Dalton, desk, dolhouse and dot.
For the letter T they found a toilet (insert lots of laughter here :), tricky word, tape and T Bone.
For the letter G we have a green string, a girl (Mrs. Nisly), Gabe and green leaves.
