  • What are some of the benefits we are seeing? We are seeing that the iPad often encourages interactivity. Students will share a lot of what they're doing, ask each other "How did you do that?" or, "Oh, look what I did!"  They want to problem solve together.  It encourages group discussions between the students.  They tend to help each other a lot more.  It is affordable, comparatively speaking (see below.)

Benefits of Technology Classroom - 0 views

  • Benefits of Technology In The Classroom: Preparing The 21st Century Workforce   One of the most important benefits of technology in the classroom is that it can help to prepare students to become successful members of the 21st Century workforce. Schools can leverage computer technology to create a project-based learning environment that teaches students essential skills they will need to thrive in the real world of work. Not only do they gain competence and experience using the technology itself, but students in the 21st Century classroom learn critical thinking and workplace skills that will prepare them well for their future. It is not just about learning facts and figures, but learning about collaboration, problem-solving, communication, leadership, motivation, productivity, and self direction. Simply put, integrating technology into the classroom helps to prepare kids for the complex world they will face after graduation.

  • s it really OK to give ipads to four and five year olds? When you’ve got the American Academy of Pediatrics making fairly strict recommendations about screen time for children under two, it makes sense to consider the question for young children as well.

Letter of the Week Preschool Curriculum - 0 views

  • teaching each letter you focus on only one sound at a time.  The letter A, for example, has many different sounds.  The first time the letter A is taught, I have chosen to focus on its short vowel sound.  While words such as airplane, acorn, and aerobics, start with the letter A, they do not focus on the short vowel sound.  Focus on one sound a week, and reading skills will come quickly for your child.
