Things are taking shape in Mrs. Emma Armstrong's first grade class and the iPads are being used as a true learning tool. Today, students were reviewing the characteristics of two dimensional shapes. To help reinforce these characteristics, Mrs. Armstrong walked students through a few examples of how to create Keynote slides that show a picture of the shape and a brief description. Students were thinking critically as they chose which slide would best support the information they wanted to relay and also deciding which classroom object best represents their shape to use as a picture. It was quite impressive to see these young scholars create a useful study tool to help "shape" their understanding of the characteristics they learned about.
