Life in Third Grade:
Third graders at Bulls Gap School are introduced to a variety of technology each week as Mrs. Musselwhite plans out fun and creative lessons. Each week the students use iPads and Apple pens to access their Nearpod. Students use the platform Nearpod to follow along and model with Mrs. Musslewhite for each weeks math lesson. Nearpod is a unique learning platorm that the 3rd graders enjoy because they get to interact with the lesson in real time. Our students love the draw it feature and the matching games. Mrs. Musslewhite is able to keep students motivated and on task by creating these interactive slides within her Nearpod. Recently students have been using the Ipads and Apple pens to create their own arrays in multiplication over the last few weeks. Mrs. Musslewhite also utalizes the mac mini each day to review vocabulary and multiplication tables. The students enjoy the competition of solving their times tables and guessing their vocabulary among peers.

Students also utalize Google classroom on their ipads daily. Students use Google classroom as their main hub for each days lesson. Here they acesses their Nearpod and each days agenda. Students use Boom cards, IXL, Math facts pro and Pink cat games as part of their daily agenda. Our students love using the ipads and Apple pens to complete any math tasks that are part of the lesson.
For literacy instrction and during RTI , 3rd graders have been utalizing the app Epic on their ipads to read for pleasure. Many of our students like the read to me feature and enjoy choosing texts that interest them. The students love to show what they are reading and how many texts they have completed. They have been focusing on animal adaptations in liteacy so many students have become interested in reading texts about animal types on Epic.
