Grade3 and the Outdoor Classroom

The Outdoor Classroom

Students in Mrs. Holt's Grade Three Class recently visited the Outdoor Classroom.
They used iPads to take pictures of what they discovered outside.
They compiled their pictures in an Explain Everything screencast and described their experiences.

They discovered iPads can be used for things other than selfies!
