Finally, we are working independently! ... Somewhat :)

After the first three days of uploading apps., linking resource sites to our i Pad screens, and adding our email accounts, the students are now working independently! They are using the i Pads to blog about the i Pads, research on the internet their exhibition topic using encyclopedias, newspapers, and databases, send emails to their exhibition mentor, create documents in Google Docs, copy paste bibliography citations from Easy Bib to Google Docs, preview their Google Sites, write their homework assignments in Notes, read comics about cyber-safety and cyber-bullying, practice math and language skills using a variety of apps., watch educational videos from Brain Pop and send me emails of screen shots of their work. There are so many directions that the students can go, that I will need to plan differently!
