iPad Interactive Learning

Help me give my students enhanced lesson engagement! Having an iPad that pairs with my smartboard would allow me to be more mobile in the classroom during instruction. It would also allow me to create digital student portfolios!

My Project

iPads can be a powerful educational tool! Teachers can use iPads to create interactive lessons with students. If the iPad is paired with the smart board it allows the teacher to be mobile around the classroom during lessons while still engaging students. Teachers can tailor lessons and activities as necessary for their class.

Teachers can also access a wealth of resources online to enhance lessons for students.

Bringing in videos, articles, and games keeps learning fun for first graders!

Teachers having portability around the classroom is key in first grade. Many times we have to check to make sure students are on task and are understanding the lesson. Being able to walk around with the iPad would allow for this much easier than using a computer with a hover cam.
