Quotes from one of our JS teachers...
"They loved them. We explored various regions of Japan via G Earth. This was a great experience, the kids could see the general location and then virtually fly into the town and see how it looked. Very stimulating for the class. We called it our 'in-excursion' to Japan.
We also used the app Labyrinth where kids build the pathways for the ball to roll along. This links beautifully with my thinking skill lessons and the Simple Machines unit.
Overall a great success, I plan to get them out for the grandparents day and have my class teach their grandparents how to use them. I will also be using 'slate blackboards' in the same lesson to give a sense of the old and new."
Thanks Scott!
