Technology Update!



Our class is now the proud owner of our very own iPad! We are so excited to have access to this valuable resource every day! If you are following our twitter account (@MissOSullivan2) you might have noticed that Ben was making updates throughout the week about what the kids in our class were up to, using the iPad (and my phone)!


Also, the 2nd grade is about to receive the building's grade level set of Ipads! We expect them to arrive next week. Feel free to check in with the children's individual blogs later next week! I am going to be encouraging them to blog about their learning using this communicative tool, now that they will have their own personal access to an iPad for the next month! There is a "Guest" sign in at the bottom of the list of student names if you would like to log in and comment on their thoughts- just remember to sign your name since it is a general account. The password is the same as your child's password.


Finally, thank you for encouraging your children to utilize their xtramath.org accounts from home to practice their math facts! I have seen a jump in the usage of their accounts (I can see who is logging in!) and a jump in scores, too! Hooray!
