Seeing as our classes this year were split grades, we feel that the grade 5 students moving forward into grade 6 will be that much more comfortable using technology to communicate their thinking in Math.
Although our focus this year was Math, we know that we can (and have somewhat) branched out into other subjects, because these apps can be used in any subject.
Science projects were created on the iPads; French oral activities were recorded on the iPads; Media pieces were shared on the iPads; and the list goes on.
Now that we have spent a year learning ourselves, we are eager to continue teaching using technology. We couldn't imagine going without it now!
