Today the Primary Seven class went on a trip to Ellon Library where they carried out tasks related to World War 1. This included looking at what the soldiers wore, looking up soldeirs who died during the war and finding out information by using the iPads.
The feedback from the P7s was all very positive:
Sally – I liked using the iPads because it was something I had never done before. I also likes seeing the uniform that the soldier wore.
Sam – The iPads were weird but I liked it because it talked and you could move the aeroplane.
Logan – The iPads were really interesting. I have never done something like that before. It was good that it all comes out of the paper.
Romi – I quite liked the computers and how it could search those who died by using the British War Graves Commission website. It’s really good technology.
Maja – The 3D iPads were awesome! It’s amazing what you can do with a printed sheet and an iPad.
