After a few weeks of testing creation apps that I think would work with our early childhood kids, it is time to update the ipads and make sure they all have the apps on them, have the proper settings, and can connect to the internet and email. This is no small task as these iPads have never seemed to connect properly to the Internet. After several attempts and meetings with the Apple Help department, it is all figured out. Our kindergarten iPads now can access the internet and have a kindergarten email attached. I decided to go with one email for the entire team instead of each teacher using their own email so that there would not be a huge influx of emails coming into the iPads. I set up a SAS student email account and used gmail.
I organized the apps by style, starting with the basic apps on page one, putting content apps on page two, then moving on to the student creation apps, and finally the teacher apps. It is important for our youngest children that we keep the apps organized so they can access them quickly.
Here are screenshots of each page.
Page 1 - Basics
Page 2 - Content Apps
Page 3 - More Content Apps (Starfall)
Page 4 - Creation Apps
Page 5 - More Creation Apps
Page 6 - Teacher Apps
This is our start up pages. I am sure this will change as we go! Now we are ready to start our first project!
