A Willow Brook teacher remarks, "I like the high quality of them & think they're bigger & easier for the students to use with their I-pads." According to a Linden teacher, " The students absolutely LOVE these styluses, & quickly learned how to use them & charge them when needed."
We congratulate Elementary Instructional Technology Coach, Mrs. Henderlight on the success gained from her grant to pilot Logitech Crayons with K-1st grade teachers & students at Linden, Willow Brook, & Woodland!
Her goal was 2 provide a more realistic pencil 2 paper experience when using an iPad & stylus. The Logitech Crayon is a more robust & durable stylus & provides a better experience when interacting with learning apps such as Seesaw, or "Wet, Dry, Try" a beginning handwriting app.
They have been a huge addition to the learning experience for my students. This age group is perfect for Lego Robotics. The experience received building & programming to complete various challenges will be helpful in future robotics education for these students."
Congratulations to Mr. Doss, RMS 5th & 6th grade STEM teacher, on the successful implementation of his Lego Robotic Kit project! Mr. Doss reports, "We have spent a lot of time using the Lego Robotics kits in my classes. @RMSortn@KirkRenegar@ORSchools
