Today we had another of our CONNECT workshops for parents - Creativity with iPads. This is the focus for our use of iPads in classrooms - students becoming creators, rather than consumers.
After a short question time about iPads, we moved on to looking at some of the first apps we use in classrooms, and giving parents the opportunity to 'play' and experience the learning for themselves. We looked at why and how we use Fotobabble, Sock Puppets, and iMovie. We were particularly thinking about visual language and oral language in student learning.
We were delighted to be joined by Lisa, a teacher from Diamond Harbour School, and Hamish, a parent.
Below is a copy of the presentation that was used to show some student examples from our school. More will get added as time goes on. You will be able to watch the growth in the depth of thinking and creative applications to learning as we continue on our journey. Keep a watch on our classroom blogs as teachers and students learn together.
