picture

This is a picture of my daughter. She got an ipod touch for her birthday. She has used her new device this summer to text friends, call friends, download music, play games, to check the weather, and created a mock entertainment interview with a friend. The possible uses in the classroom are endless. There are apps that can be incorporated into lessons, such as Evernote to catch up on missing work or Toonstation to work on story elements and creating their own stories. Students could also get together with a partner to create mock interviews with a character in a story. The other picture is of my son, laying in bed with his ipod touch using facetime to talk with my daughter who is in her bed. Students could use facetime to talk with students in other parts of the world.
