Multimedia project October 27, 2011

      Well I have made an awesome little birds story.  I really liked making this project for my parents of my class.  It really helped me educate myself about my iPad2.  Although I know we should not use them all the time.  My students and I have gained a lot of technology awareness this year from me having it in the classroom.  My project allowed me to look closely at the gains my students receive because of their interaction with it.  I realized that the ipad2 helps with motor skills, eye hand coordination, and interesting subjects and themes.  The students have been interactive with apps, stories, and leveled games.  It has allowed me to help my nonverbal student be able to repeat and say and identify the letters A and B.  My project was a great way for me to reflect on the positive aspects of this new technological literacy tool.  I really liked how it allows the parents and teachers to be in control of the sites children can access.  I look forward to more great experiences with my ipad2.
