Nexus Tablets - Documenting our Learning

Our class is so lucky to be part of a pilot project through the board.  We are piloting the use of Nexus Tablets within the classroom.  So far, we have been teaching the students to navigate the tablets, take pictures, and use Google for a simple research task.  Within the FDK program so much of student learning is documented through photos.  Many students are asking to take pictures of their own work and do so with such care and pride.  When the students ask to take a picture of their work, we know that this is a work sample that they are particularly proud of and want to preserve.  Here are just a few examples of of the integration of technology in our daily classroom life.  

Why not print pictures taken during a family outing and have your child write about what is happening in the picture.  These pictures can be compiled to make a special journal!
