Third grade @ApacheIS512 students doing research on famous people using @pebble_go . When I asked a student why they chose the person they were researching, they said, “I wanted to learn something new about someone I didn’t know…” Love this!!

Don’t forget about the amazing capability to screen record directly from your iPad…use this to create connections with parents (show them apps you are using), record example tutorials for students, explain assignments, etc. education.apple.com/learning…
