Last year was my first year my entire school was 1:1 with iPads. The one thing I found to be the most challenging with every student having their own iPad is classroom management. How do you successfully manage 20-25 students while they have iPads?! It can be very overwhelming. Throughout the school year I will share some ideas that I have tried and that have worked for me.
Today I will share some signs that I have created. While standing up at the front of the room and saying what app to go to seems like a very easy direction to follow K-2 students can't follow it. So I created these signs as a visual for students. If they didn't hear me say the app they know to look on the board and the sign will be there. Not only is it a great visual, but it also is a great reminder for what apps they are using and a reminder that any other app is off limits for that class. These I have found to be very helpful and you can find my "Apps We Will Be Using" signs in my TeachersPayTeachers store here!
