Driving Question
• Can iPads be used in 1st Grade Reading Groups to measurably improve scores of the 100 sight words, oral fluency, understanding vocabulary and literal and inferential comprehension?
![Page 3: Action Research Project Inver Grove Heights Community Schools by Karin Swainey and Sara Getting.](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022070407/56649e4c5503460f94b41b3d/html5/thumbnails/3.jpg)
Goals/Objectives of today…
• Useful apps for primary students.
• Data: how using iPads increased sight words, fluency, comprehension and vocabulary.

21st Century Skills
• Critical thinking, systems thinking, collaborative problem solving.– These were difficult to produce with iPads.
Instead we took the angle of using these to help us improve our own teaching strategies and best practice. These are not developmentally appropriate nor conducive to the subject matter for first grade.
![Page 19: Action Research Project Inver Grove Heights Community Schools by Karin Swainey and Sara Getting.](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022070407/56649e4c5503460f94b41b3d/html5/thumbnails/19.jpg)
21st Century Skills
• Global Awareness: Google Earth.• Interactive Communication: swapped iPads
and listened to another student’s fluent reading as they followed along in the story.
• Scientific Inquiry: new students to groups had to show some degree of self inquiry to manage given tasks.
• Data analysis: stoplight charts
![Page 20: Action Research Project Inver Grove Heights Community Schools by Karin Swainey and Sara Getting.](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022070407/56649e4c5503460f94b41b3d/html5/thumbnails/20.jpg)
Unintended outcomes
• VGA Cord.
• Student movement within groups. (30)
• iPad syncing.
• Noisy apps.
• Use of websites.

In Conclusion…
• Overall the use of iPads increased the four areas of data collections: sight words, fluency, vocabulary and comprehension.
• Studying and implementing 21st Century Skills in our teaching strategies has changed our teaching.
• Had a vision of what we thought would happen, but through the process we were very flexible and made several adaptations.
• Working with digital natives helped us learn too.
