Monster Paintings & Fotobabble

Have you ever wished that you could make your students' artwork TALK? Well, there's an app for that! Fotobabble allows you to add an audio recording to a still photograph.

We use it on our Art Room iPad after we make these colorful monster paintings. I send the kids into my "recording studio", which is the storage room, so they have some privacy to have fun with their stories and their voices. 

Click on the captions to take a listen to some of their stories!

Digital Learning Day 2014

A few years back, I earned an iPad through our Artsonia funds. While one iPad isn't ideal for an entire school, or even an entire class, we seem to be making it work. So, in honor of Digital Learning Day on February 5, here are some examples of our digital learning:

I'm always looking for other ways to use our iPad, so leave a suggestion in the comments!  Thanks!
