His Wig was very itchy!!

This is an example of the beginnings of a project on Bach and his music. We used EduCreations. I’m finally figuring out so much about working with EduCreations and these type projects. In a 30 minute class, we can’t possibly learn and then create a final product that will be our best work. I’ve found that the first time around, we create a presentation, but the students need to re-do it the second time around in order to get all the “meat” in the presentation. I’ve discovered that if I give them a worksheet with specific requirements for each page, they seem to stay focus better. When they are new to the iPads, they sure are needy!! and it always takes longer than I expect for them to finish. It helps to explain, then actually demonstrate on my iPad where to get the images, how to write on the page, and how to add other pages. … I have to keep telling myself to slowdown!!
