Ready, Set, Action!

We have been Ready and Set to go for a while now...just time for the Action part!


We finally had a REAL class lesson using the iPads.  It was our first lab experience.  The students were taking measurements of the length of their stride and calculating the total distance between two points.  They went to my website, pulled in the lab instructions, created the new pages for procedures and data and completed the lab without a hitch! I WAS SO PROUD!  It went so smooth.  Everything I had envisioned happening, happened.  But great happenings.


We also had visitors--our principals and superintendent stopped by and asked the kids some questions.  One student told the principal that "It makes it easy that its all in one place"! They were amazed at the work we were doing together and how far along this class has come since its inception last spring. All of the time and money put into this pilot program will pay off--I guarantee it!  The kids will come out on top! We will be teaching the kids how they need to be taught, and using technologies that interest their generation and that they are familiar with.  We are in the 21st Century and we need to stick with the newest models and instructional strategies for our students.
