ibook assignment
I really liked using the ibook to complete our assignment. I think that 3-4 graders would have no problems using ibook for an assignment as longs as they had some one to teach them and answer their questions. I think that it would make the assignment more relevant in their lives because of the use of technology. As long as the teacher had very clear guidelines for the student’s assignments that emphasized the geometric element a little more than the technology side, I don't think that the students would have trouble learning the geometry skills that they needed.

I also think that the best way to learn something is to have it incorporated into your life in meaningful ways. So what better way to learn about both geometry and technology than to integrate them.
I think that this project would deffinently help the kids remembber these definitions because they had to find the pictures and make a book with them. What a great project!
I agree with focusing on the geometry rather than the technology. The technology should not overshadow what it's being used to teach. We as teachers have to make sure the content comes first!
