School’s out for summer, but that doesn’t mean kids have to stop learning. (This is where my kids start frowning at me and say that I am evil)
What I love about apps is that there are so many awesome ones now that capture kids’ imagination while actually teaching them something at the same time. Truth be told, I’m one of those grown ups that secretly “plays” on some of my kids’ apps to sharpen my little grey cells. Can’t let the kids get ahead of me in the brain game, but they usually are!
Every year our teachers' gifts get a little different, but it’s always the same story — once we bring them to school there is sure to be another gift that’s almost the same. It’s hard to find something unique for teachers that they can actually use but this year, it’s going to be different!
Teachers today need something more than chalk and crayons. They’re teaching in the internet age, with kids who are more tech savvy now than they ever were before.
