Ipad

One of the hardest thing with using the iPad in the classroom is finding the time to go through all of the apps in the iTunes Store listed under the education banner. We have started to list some of the apps we've found under the Key Learning Areas. 

This is an ongoing task so check every so often to see which new Apps have been added.

iPad Apps for AAC


It is time to face the beginning of another school year. I am driving to a rural area 2 hours away to help set up an iPad for a yougster entering 1st grade. I was searching for some reviews and ideas for this boy when I came across a very helpful review on the iPad and AAC. Although it is not adressing young children, from an adult user viewpoint it was great.

The blog is "Do it Myself - Glenda Watson Hyatt". She covers Using the iPad as an Affordable Communication Device.

If you are looking at an iPad to accommodate a disability, I would recommend reading it.

All the best!
