It is important to know your audience and how they work. It takes young children more time to complete Venn diagrams because they are not as familiar with the keyboard.

Students of all ages love sock puppets and retain information better when presented in a fun format.

I love how i-Pad apps allow you to prepare your work, but then it can be shared in Kidblog for others to see and comment.

Always remember which i-Pad your work was recorded on so you can complete tasks or share your work.

Always allow time for sharing, even if it is days later.

Plan well in advance requesting the number of
i-Pads needed to ensure quality time and availability .

VONDA DAVIS, FIRST GRADE, WILL:

• Spend more time this summer familiarizing myself with the apps and learn more about app smashing.
• Work harder to incorporate i-Pads into more lessons.
• Work on having students create presentations.
