iPad Grouping

Here are some examples of how I group the students when iPads are available:
  • The most common way I use iPads during the day is during a reading, science or math rotation.  I'll set up the app or video I want the kids to use and when they get to the table they get their own iPad to use for the time.
  • Sometimes, if I have a specific story I want the class to listen to and read I will give them each their own iPad and we will do it as a whole class, then discuss.
  • During rotations, I'll often have two kids share one iPad.  This helps them work on teamwork skills and they will have some sparkling academic conversations during their time as well.  
  • Also during rotations, I will sometimes set up one iPad with a story and hook up four headphones to the iPad using an adapter.  This gets them all working together and discussing.
