Before Teaching the Kindergarteners!



The idea of teaching the kindergartners (ages 3-5) with their iPods is wonderful! They are young and can learn really easily and it will stay in their little brains forever. I think fun educational apps for the kids will make them want to learn their ABC's and 123's since they have short attention span!

For class, we are divided into groups and your group has to find an educational app for the kindergartners to learn and then teach it to them. For my group, we chose an app called Alphabet Tracing. It is an app that helps the kindergartners learn their alphabets and numbers. We haven't taught the them yet and I'm hoping that when we do, it will be effective and go smoothly. Our groups has to also find information about the app and write a paper, make a video of ourselves interviewing each other, make a pamphlet, and do blogs.

I think teaching the kindergartners off their iPods will be fun for them and it will be something new. They will learn many things off the iPods and then they can transfer the things that they were taught onto paper if the teacher give them worksheets. The app has many cool features that make learning for them fun and exciting! It's high recommended app to get for kids, ages 3-5, to get a head start of leaning (or learn) their alphabets and numbers.
