Tablets in our classroom can increase learning time by encouraging students to use the devices to study on their own. Some of our lowest assessment scores are in the area of grammar and reading. We need additional fun and motivating learning tools to helps us master the skills we need before moving on to the 3rd grade. Games and apps that are offered through these tablets will help increase basic grammar skills, reading fluency and comprehension and also gain notice in our weekly writing workshops.
The size and durability of these tablets make them ideal devices for my 2nd graders to use while rotating through their learning groups. For example, while I am working with a small reading group, other students can deepen their comprehension of specific concepts by using tablet devices strategically located at learning areas elsewhere in the classroom. They might work collaboratively on an activity, such as creating a mind map, or play an educational game together or independently.
