Do you Nearpod?

One of the great new apps we have been playing with is Nearpod!  It is wonderful!  The kids have the presentation right in front of them, which makes it so much easier to pay attention and learn!  It is even interactive, so kids can respond to  questions, take a poll, or even a quiz!  We used it today to learn about erosion.  This was a lot of fun, since we could really see the pictures well on the iPads!  We will be using this app quite a bit more!

3 -D Shape FInding

We have just begun studying shapes and geometry!  This is always one of our favorite math units, it has so many fun activities.  We talked about different shapes and decided which were 2D and which were 3D.  Then today, we used pic collage to take pictures of different shapes and label them.  It was so fun to see what the kids could find in the classroom!  They are great at seeing shapes everywhere!
