Your Responsibility Points to remember;

• This is a privilege not a right.

• Make sure you limit your screen time at home

• Always use your iPad in public spaces at home. No bedrooms!

• 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!

• Don’t forget to also bring a set of headphones.

At Home The fun starts now It’s now time to set up your iPad with your parents. Please visit https://support.apple.com/en-au/ipad for everything you may need to know.

Remember your parents may need some help, so be sure to explain to them what you are doing.

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.
