Your Responsibility Points to remember;
• This is a privilege not a right.
• Make sure you limit your screen time at home
• Always keep your iPad safe
o Keep it in the case when transporting it around at all times.
o Keep it safe inside your zipped school bag on your way to and from school
o Don’t take it outside unless it’s part of a class and you’re with a teacher
• You are responsible for your iPad! That means you know who uses it, how it’s used and the content on it. NO EXCUSES!
At Home The fun starts now It’s now time to set up your iPad with your parents. Take out your iPads for Learning – iPad Quick Start Guide and follow the instructions. This guide will show you how to connect the iPad to the computer and register with iTunes so you can start downloading the Apps you need.
Remember your parents may need some help, so be sure to explain to them what you are doing.
Meet the iPad 3
Apps!
Apps – the software for your iPad! With so many Apps available on the iTunes App Store for iPads, you can imagine how long is has taken us to select applications that best suit our school and students. As we progress further into our program the students will no doubt find applications that best suit their learning and we strongly emphasize that this App list is a work in progress and will continue to evolve. We feel that all of the Apps below will be used to varying capacities in our classrooms and we ask that you download these onto your iPad. Apps where the Cost box is shaded green are required immediately. The others could be added over the next term. Your class teacher might also add to this list later in the year.
