Trying New Things

Miss Collins, one of our teachers loves shopping.  She saw these cool styluses at Paper Plus on sale and thought they would be great from Room One, so she bought one for each iPad to try out.  They are a pencil on one end and a stylus on the other end.  

The iPads are popular in Room One and we are beginning to learn how there are apps for different things like learning apps and fun apps.  Sometimes though learning apps are fun too.  

Miss Collins thought they would help us form our letters and they are the same shape as a pencil which will help with our handwriting grip.  
We used them today with the iPad and thought they were great especially when we needed to form letters and move things into tricky places.  They were cool to use.  We have two pink one and two blue ones.  

Here are some photos of us trying out our cool new toys!  

Micheal and Lucas had finished all of their work and were trying out the pencils on the Lego game.  Miss Collins hung out with them for a little while and loved hearing the boys share their knowledge and collaborate together.  





Nikora chose to explore a new app he had seen Miss Collins use called Duck Duck Moose.  
He found it could do lots of different things and is keen to use it again.  


Tre'destiny explored a Maths app on the iPad.  She enjoyed having time by herself to try and figure out how it worked on her own.  Maybe she will become the expert on this app?

Here is a picture of one of our new styluses.
