Publishing:
You would think choosing their own font was the best thing since sliced bread! :) Really though, they were thrilled....isn't that what learning is all about? :)
Of course we needed to test out our directions.....look at the little sprouts. :)
Also, students use the Ipad to scan QR Codes during Math Worskhop
Here is an example of what an activity using QR Codes may look like.

Then, they use the Scan App on the Ipad to scan the barcode.
Last, it reveals the correct measurement for the object.

Starfall is an App and also a website Starfall.com
Spelling City is an App and also a website www.spellingcity.com/hbusha
