Last night I was browsing on YouTube and I came across this really nice video of a child named Gage. It basically shows how the use of an iPad helped him to find his voice. It is really worth watching. Here is the link :)
Today in class we went over The Writing Process and how we are going to make a blog in groups of all kinds of information, links, apps, technology, etc., of how to make the process easier for children. I am really looking forward to getting into this assignment.
Yesterday we discussed a little bit about the importance of cursive writing and whether or not it was important to learn. People have mixed feelings about this, but I do feel students should be aable to cursive write their name. I found an app called ABC Cursive that shows the proper way to write cursive letters. The app gets you to draw right on the screen, tracing a letter twice, and then moving on. I have the free version, but there is also an upgraded version.
