I would love to talk to you about what we are doing at The Pingry School,
lower campus, in Short Hills, NJ.
In addition to tech being fully integrated into the curriculum at each grad=
e
level, K-5,
we have started an iPad pilot program in grades K and Grade 2.
With this program we have focused on differentiated learning and
collaboration.
There are 2 Kindergartens and we have 1 iPad shared with 2 students.
We have 2 Second grades and again 1 iPad shared with 2 students.
We are thrilled with our results!!!
Please come visit (we are 15 minutes from Newark airport) or give me a call
at 973-379-4550 x1438.
Hope to talk to you soon! Susan Ferris Rights
