Ideas from Year 5 students
Special network for children? Maybe one that doesn’t cost so much? Taking pictures of spelling words, check in dictionary. Listening to stuff on the radio in class time. Remembering dates on calendars. Taking pictures. PE Timer with the stopwatch. Maths games. Google. Spelling games. Voice Recording. Calculators. To do lists to keep projects organised. Have a ring tone to get our attention in class. Record interviews with people. Can text to the teacher to ask a question if you don’t want to ask in front of the
whole class.
