iPad in the classroom

There are a lot of resources out there for teachers using iPads in the classroom whether the teacher is the only one with the iPad or if you are like me and teach in a school that is on a one to one iPad ratio.  I'm always scouring the Internet and of course Pinterest looking for fresh new ideas for my kids.  I've noticed that no matter how awesome something is I have to keep it mixed up because my students are always eager for something new and different.

This week I have focused on learning about "flipped" classrooms and what I could do in my classes to integrate this method.  In my searches I ran across a great info-graphic for iPad users that gives great app resources for teachers and how those apps can be used.  It is important to note that some apps are free while others may have a cost.  Just click on the graphic below,  I hope you enjoy it as much as I did!

Spiral Review In All Its Glory (Decimal of the Day)

   The school district I am in has cumulative tests covering everything taught each six weeks.  The twist is, these tests are made by administrators and not teachers.  This really isn't a problem to me.  It is a learning tool for me and a teachable moment for my students on the importance of all material covered in class.       We as teachers can really get bogged down in the variables of a test like this.  By that I mean, oh the test question was worded funny or well they were only given one chance to show mastery on this, my students are _______ fill in the blanks, thoughts, and reasoning.  The one thing my school district did was have us put our scores up standard by standard right next to every other teacher in the district who had to teach the same thing we did.  My oh my did I fall short!  I say I fell short even though I had great reasoning as to why my scores looked the way they did... but upon further reflection ...

Already too busy for words!

I took Sunday off as a day of rest!  And of course, it was Mother's day so I spent the day with my Mother.  My Dad took us out to eat and we watched a movie and had ice cream later.  Yesterday... I just completely forgot to post!  So this post will be about what I did yesterday. Yesterday's focus was pertaining to the class I have this evening in Legal Issues.  I had a case brief that I needed to turn in for a homework assignment and NUMEROUS chapters in a law book to read.  Have you ever read a law book?  I have found that if you don't take it personal it can be rather dull reading.  By that I mean you have to really have a vested interest in what you are reading.  This really made me think about teaching and school in general. Kids today get a pretty bum rap all around where school is concerned.  They are unfocused, bored, discipline problems, and all kinds of things... but rarely do you hear what I think is the real reason why....
