The fifth grade students gave a presentation showing the ways they use their iPads to collect and examine information.  The second grade students' presentation required the board members to work with the kids on their iPads in an example of a typical hands-on lesson.

This tool allows the children to participate in meaningful learning experiences that are specifically tailored to the future of technology, such as as enabling partner work to function seamlessly using the air drop feature.

The fifth grade students showed the board screen shots from their Social Studies class to illustrate how they use the program One Note to take notes.  One Note also allows them to pull documents directly from Schoology.  The iPads allow educators to stress the importance of being a responsible digital citizen and using technology to help solve real-world problems.

The second grade students brought iPads to share with members of the Board and worked together on a mock classroom learning experience that had Board members answering questions and engaging with the students.
