It was brought to my attention from one of the fabulous creators of ABC Pocket Phonics (and Dot to Dot Number Whiz) that the video link I'd included in my iPad as a reading group wasn't functioning properly so I thought I'd use my new friend, Blogsy, to try to fix it. I will go and update the original blog, but for now, here is a more recent clip of a student using ABC Pocket Phonics during my reading group time- he had just finished reading/writing with me and was practicing letter writing and sounds and blending words on the iPad.... And another try at using the original clip the first one with my students using iPads during reading groups. Cmon Blogsy, be a pal and talk to YouTube for me. I really want BOTH links to work. (update: YouTube is still not playing nicely, so if you'd really like to see the original video, follow the link below...)

When you are introducing a new app to your students, how do you go about introducing and modeling it to your students? I am just worried that I would explain it and demonstrate to my students, but then some of them would get to their center and not know how to use it.
