Here is the first of many updates on how the iPads are being used in my classroom. The students were finally able to get their hands on the iPads on Monday (November 28). The first day was spent mostly on the ins and outs of how the iPads were to be used. I showed some of the basic features of the iPad and let them take them for a spin. They were excited to see what they could do and spent time taking pictures and playing around with the free apps. I showed them how to log into Dropbox and Evernote and how to log off those apps as well.

Best interactive iPad books of 2011 for kids of all ages - iPhone app recommendations - Lisa Caplan | Appolicious ™ iPhone and iPad App Directory
All of these best iPad books for kids use digitization to enhance the reading experience, not divert attention from it.

Here are eight amazing iPad reading apps for kids from 2011. The order is based on approximate audience age, not preference.iPad Academy - Learn How to Use the iPad | Tutorials, Tips & Training

I am totally blown away by the numbers of interventions and remediation I am able to do using the Ipod Touch. As I said in my initial request, I use the Ipod Touch with my Autistically Impaired students, my English Language learners and my low-level readers in small group and one on one activity in reading and math. The free applications used were Baby Flash Cards, Matches, and Kid’s Math. Using these programs in addition to the regular curriculum has helped me move my low level readers from A (pre-kindergarten) to level G/-H, just short of the I first grade outcome. The remaining students have used the Touches as center activities for math, literacy and some games like concentration. They do get excited and like to explore so it’s more of a challenge when there is no adult supervision.ipad implementation ideas
