Students have been using the Quiver app to experiment with augmented reality. To augment means to make something greater by adding to it. Augmented reality is a concept which adds things from technology to the real world to make it more detailed and interesting.

Students also used technology to share their recycled craft projects. Each student recorded a video presentation about their creation which was linked to a QR Code. During station time, students could use an iPad to scan the codes and watch their classmates' movies.
Routine classroom meetings have allowed for a positive classroom in which every student feels welcome and loved. Sometimes we greet each other and share orally. Other times we have a quick prompt to respond to. This day's prompt was "I am..."

We have many fun things planned as the year rounds out. I love our first grade adventures!
