All About Me template to create a story about themselves. I stopped into Ms. Iles' room while they were working and was very impressed by these first graders! I started to help and soon discovered there were already a few experts in the class! With Scribble Press' great user interface, these first graders and their teacher really found their way around by exploring on their own. If we got stuck, we would find a 6 or 7 year old to help us! We were able to publish their books online to Ms. Iles' Scribble Press bookshelf and we even got one printed! The first graders were so impressed how a story could jump out of an iPad and become a wonderful, touchable, readable book to keep forever! Read their stories online, print them to PDF, or download them as EPubs. Learn more about the Scribble Press app and Group Accounts.
Ms. Iles' first grade class worked really hard to create their own Scribble Press books about themselves for Open House. Using the Scribble Press app, each student used the

Library News: March 2013 Two students at Bridge Point, Meghan and Lauren, have published three e-books on the ePub Bud website which are available to upload to your iPads. (A fourth is on the way!) If you open each link below on your iPad (using Safari), it will automatically take you to the ePub site. Choose "Download eBook" and you will receive a link to add each book to your iBooks library. The books include audio of the authors reading their stories and are great fun - enjoy! The 70's Dance Party #1 The 70's Dance Party #2 The 70's Dance Party #3 Today Ms. Bufkin's 1st graders had the chance to FaceTime with a friend travelling this week and next. It took him almost 30 hours to get to Vietnam from Austin, wow! He shared about his trip to the zoo and all the places he plans to travel in Asia. What an adventure! iPads are helping us reach all across the world!
Bridge Point Elementary's Science Day is "Breaking the mold of a traditional science fair!" http://www.safeshare.tv/w/QSxEvvZWZv Students in Ms. Cimino's 3rd grade used the Comic Life app to create examples of personification. Students illustrated their examples by hand and took a photo to place into Comic Life. They emailed the PDF version to their teacher and she assembled it using Adobe Acrobat. She then uploaded it to the website http://epubbud.com to create an EPub version so it will do a neat page turn effect in iBooks when downloaded from an iDevice. Check out their EPub version. Great work 3rd graders!
Bridge Point opened its doors today to invite parents to experience the life of students as they know it. Students shared artwork, writing pieces, journals, science experiments, class projects, and many of them shared what they have been doing on the iPads. While all styles of learning are appreciated, awed and respected at Bridge Point, this year's LEAP project really came alive to many families. Siblings, parents, grandparents, aunts and uncles were wowed by the ease at which our children have grasped the concept of iPads for learning. From freshly published Scribble Press books by first graders to complex circuitry science journaling by fifth graders, Bridge Point has certainly taken the LEAP! Thanks so much to our families, teachers and students of Bridge Point, it was a fantastic way to start a Friday morning! Have you ever wondered what apps Bridge Pointers are using? Our app lists are located on this blog under the LEAP button.
