OStudents select center and indicate their choice on the Centers board.

iPad apps: SplashtopO Splashtop is a remote desktop app available
for the iPad and iPhone (even Android version)
O The app enables us to utilize the iPad as a wireless slate with our students.
O It has increased accessibility for students with limited mobility or who struggle with reaching the Smartboard.
O Additionally, the app has allowed access to desktop applications (i.e. Boardmaker) during table time activities.
Things to know about Splashtop
O Price fluctuates throughout the year (Currently the iPad version is $4.99)
O In order for the app to work, the iPad and the computer its remoting into must be connected to the same network.
O The app works best when the computer it’s remoting into is connected to the internet through an ethernet cable.
