Tapfun apps in Kindergarten

Sue Holt recently took some photos of her Kindergarten students using one of our apps (Math Word Problems for Kindergarten and First Grade). Sue is a very experienced educator who runs the blog "A Digital Kindergarten." (adigitalkindergarten.com)  Sue writes about integrating technology in the classroom and on her experience in a 1:1 Kindergarten classroom with iPads.

One interesting thing you will see in these images is how one student is using the iPad and one student is using a whiteboard. Using such approaches educators like Sue are able to cover a range of learning objectives in the classroom.

Thank you Sue for sharing these images!
