iPad Classroom
I participated in Shrewsbury's first Summer Institute, an opportunity for SPS educators to join together collaboratively to explore select topics on 21st century education. What a fanstastic experience!
I am fortunate to have had an interactive whiteboard installed in my classroom last fall. It opened new avenues for my students to engage in active learning. With all the talk of iPads I took the opportunity to enroll in an institute course titled iPad Classroom. Twenty of my colleagues and I spent a week together exploring the unlimited opportunities offered by this new technology.
I know summer vacation has barely begun but I am so excited to share what I learned with my class this fall. I created a Show Me for several class activities, made a Scribble Press template for an All About Me text, and replaced the pencil and paper assessment of the New England states and capitals with an interactive review through Socrative.
I look forward to blending small teacher guided groups, peer collaboration, and technology to offer a unique, fun, enriching learning experience for the students in room 35.
