iPad Integration Ideas
Using iPads in Guided Reading
Using iPads in Maths groups
1. Have students photograph examples of 2D shapes or 3D objects in the classroom. Label each one and list the properties.
2. Photograph numbers from around the school/classroom. Create number sentences using the numbers photographed.
3. Find three objects and insert their pictures in the order of their volume/capacity. Type sentences to show how they relate to each other. The same activity could be completed for length, mass and area.
4. Photograph a clock. Type in the answers to a series of questions e.g. What time will it be: in 5 minutes? in half an hour? in three-quarters of an hour? in one hour? What time was it: two hours ago? 30 minutes ago? 1 minute ago?
