Sunday, March 16, 2014. Stick Around" and hangout with Tony Vincent! Thanks to the one and only Brent Catlett (@catlett1), our class was given the amazing opportunity to hangout with Tony Vincent (@tonyvincent), creator of the app, Stick Around. There were several classrooms hanging out across the district as well. Our 4th graders were able to ask Tony questions about his app. Tony even added student suggestions to his list! Cole asking Tony Vincent, "How did you create StickAround? I have created puzzle...

miPad Classroom: September 2015
http://mipadclass.blogspot.com/2015_09_01_archive.html
Monday, September 14, 2015. This year I am really pushing the question, "Who Can? I ask this question A LOT and students' hands shoot up all over the classroom. They are eager to show that they are learning how to use the app. This question, although simple, has been a powerful tool when teaching my students how to use a new app. My students are paying close attention as to how each app works. My most recent focus has been on the app, Stick Around. Who can show the class how to add text? We're Using iPad...

miPad Classroom: April 2014
http://mipadclass.blogspot.com/2014_04_01_archive.html
Tuesday, April 8, 2014. What does a gallery walk look like with iPads and students? Did you see that project? You have to see this cool thing they added! Those are just some of the comments I have heard during our gallery walks. Students becoming teachers and being inspired by those around them as well as new ideas and collaboration! How is their work assessed? It seemed as if students were just doing work to get it done and move onto the next assignment (almost going through the motions). We're Using iP...

miPad Classroom: Celebration of Learning!
http://mipadclass.blogspot.com/2014/03/celebration-of-learning.html
Sunday, March 23, 2014. Celebration of Learning Room. In the past I have conducted what I thought was a student-led conference, but after this year I realized what it truly looks like when students lead a conference! Having a set of iPads has given my students more choice and the power to create and demonstrate what they know and understand in multiple ways. Students showed their Keynote journals. And the Stick Around Rocks and Mineral. Sort puzzle they create. We had 5 students make a "how to". After co...

miPad Classroom: January 2015
http://mipadclass.blogspot.com/2015_01_01_archive.html
Sunday, January 25, 2015. No Time, No Problem! This year was a year of firsts for me, even though I have been teaching for eight years! This was my first year starting the year off with iPads. My previous year, I received the iPads in January, so the kids were already using them with Sharae Geldes. We were able to dive right in and start using the iPads (no pre-teaching required). So it was quite a shock, but also great learning/teaching experience starting from scratch this year. Causes of the Civil War.

Wednesday, March 9, 2016. SEE what I SAW happen in my classroom when I used the app Seesaw! Seesaw is a fantastic and free app that has changed my classroom! Seesaw is an app that showcases digital work as well as paper based work. It is very user friendly for students, teachers, and parents. There are several benefits to using Seesaw in the classroom. The kids love it when their parents comment and ask questions. I have had parents thank me and say that they love being able to see what their child i...
