I purchased this lesson in hopes that it would work with the iPod Touch since I had already downloaded several news apps and newspapers. Just as I had hoped it work wonderfully. My students and I will enjoy this lesson that has a degree of differentiation for students at different levels of reading and comprehension. Will even try to had more technology by allowing some students to use and dictation app to write their event. Thanks Monica, your lessons look absolutely inspiring.

Angela Bynum (TpT Seller)
I purchased Learn the States to use in conjunction with our present social studies textbook. It teaches the U.S. Regions and this lesson will work well with each of the regions as we travel across the U.S. This lesson infuses technology with use of the iPad or the iPod Touch with use of an app. My students will love learning through use of their iPods.

We will actually use this complete lesson Monday, but already students have enjoyed testing the QR reader app with the codes included. We have just started using iPads in our class. I am now excited to learn how to create my own QR. Additionally, I really appreciate the choices for differentiation within your assignment, as I teach several levels of student within the same subject.

I would like to know (approx) how much class time this activity takes. Thanks!
April 27, 2013
Monica Burns - ClassTechTips iPad Lessons (TpT Seller)
With a 5 minute intro the "hunt" should take 40 minutes. It includes 3 leveled scavenger hunts and an extension activity for fast finishers/homework :)

amonley re: 25 FREE Math iPad Apps w Common Core Activities (List #1)
Before I buy this, does each student need to have an ipad to make use of these. I have one, but my students do not. Thanks for the help.
April 24, 2013
Monica Burns - ClassTechTips iPad Lessons (TpT Seller)
This list is great for the one iPad classroom (demo or presentation of a new skill), a classroom with a few iPads to create stations, or a 1:1 classroom. Definitely versatile! :)

Hi,
Yes, I tried typing in the links and copy/pasting them and it turned into what looked like code or symbols. The QR codes did work however, thanks.

jennvt67 re: Classify Rocks: Observe and Record (on iPads!)
You title has peaked my interest. I can't tell from your brief description how the iPad works into this product. Would you mind being a bit more specific so I can determine if this will meet the standards for Vermont for my grade level. What are they actually recording on the iPads? What app will they need to do the work?

I wrote a grant for iPads for my class-I received 8! I teach 6th, 7th, & 8th grade SS (Ancient World History, Civics, and US History-exploration-Civil War). So far I've used them for research and a scavenger hunt--looking at your lessons intrigued me--I'll watch for the bundle deals! Anything with my subject matter would be great! Thanks!

jantappan re: Write a Story: Create a Movie of Your Tale (on iPads!)
I'm intrigued by the iPad lessons you post, but what I need is less of the lesson part and more of the "how on earth can you do this on iPads?" The lesson ideas,I have, but at the moment, my iPad from school is more effective as a paperweight since I can't figure out how to use it. I'm looking for more of the how to make the iPad work. Does this product show you how to take movies and (I hope) move them to a technological place where you might be able to show them via some sort of projector? Or make DVDs of them?
December 3, 2012
Monica Burns - ClassTechTips iPad Lessons (TpT Seller)
Great question! My blog: ClassTechTips.com has lots of "How-Tos" for different free apps. Each lesson has a list of steps to follow for each app it features, and extra tips when needed. This lesson works with the Toontastic app, which has a great in-app tutorial for making movies. Download the free app on your iPad and try it out - with this app you can only project your student creations via the Toontastic website (you set up an account and it saves them all there). If you want to do a lesson with your students that aligns this app to the Common Core Standards, that's where I come in :) Hope this answers your question!
