iPad Intro – Back to School Activity Perfection

Solving your back to school activity problems! So you want something fun not too time consuming and will learn about students that will make a great display – got ya covered! This iPad Intro is perfect for upper elementary students….let me tell you why!

1. Time

As a teacher time is huge! The beginning of the year is perfect to get to know your students but can be overwhelming for some. I wasn’t a fan of standard back to school activities and found I really wanted students to have a chance to develop an introduction that I could review!

2. Creativity

Students expressing themselves and having the chance to open that relationship and dialogue from day one is crucial. I love a back to school activity where students have a part and voice that is not always speaking out loud to the class!

Students (and teachers!) love the tech theme and how a little silliness goes a long way – even with middle schoolers.

3. Versatility

It makes sense that not all classrooms are the same. You need to be able to differentiate for your students. With a digital AND paper version you decide what is best for your class.

1 page and a display is awesome. 1 page a day for a week (turned into morning work) and you will know TONS about your students in your room. Independent work is less pressure but still focuses on a fun way to share about each other.

These make such a fun display as well or great to send home digitally for parents. Either version is great for feedback and to initiate dialogue with students.
