Using the iPad Camera

Kids love to use a camera and there are some great ways to use the camera on the iPad in the classroom.  These ideas could be used in work stations and also in all content areas.

• Students could work with a partner to create a video of themselves reading a story.  This gives students the ability monitor their own fluency.  These videos could also be saved to show growth.
• To display student work in a digital way, students can take a picture of their work or creation.  These images can be uploaded into a variety of apps and/or posted on a classroom website.
• Students can create a video demonstrating what was learned on a specific concept or topic.
