This is a lesson where students were explaining geometry terms such as parallel and perpendicular. Students used the camera on their iPads to capture pictures of examples around the school. They then used Educreations, a white board app that can record the screen while you write and talk, to explain and show the lines.
This is a great beginner app because it is so easy for students to learn, yet has a plethora of uses in the classroom!

RULER: Feeling Words
Students were introduced to Pixie by selecting a "Feeling" word and illustrating the emotion. We combined them to make a movie to show to parents and other classes.

Using Padlet for Internet Safety
Today students did a review of Internet safety. To brainstorm and share safety tips, we created a Padlet to post tips for eachother. A Padlet is an online platform that allows students to attach "sticky notes" in real time. The sticky notes can be texts, pictures, links, a file, slideshow, and just about anything! Because this was our first time using Padlet, we just typed in text. Here is what we came up with so far!
