iPads
In second grade, we will use iPads in the classroom to produce short videos and retellings of familiar stories, create maps of our school neighborhood, and explore online resources. New apps are being added all the time, so projects will vary each year! Many of the projects we've done in the past can be seen by visiting the Student Work tab!
SMARTboard
We use the classroom SMARTboard every day. Two students have the job of using the SMARTboard each morning to help us review math concepts and/or basic grammar. In addition, we use the SMARTboard during lessons, to access online content, and to play educational games.
Keyboarding
Near the end of second grade, students will be using the Type To Learn 4 program to learn basic keyboarding. the program is game-based, and the students look forward to using it in the computer lab!
