These are my notes from the second workshop I attended from the conference.
Workshop: iPads for Art - Janet Shephered - Summerland Primary.
Janet is a visual arts specialist accross Years 1-3.
She stressed that the iPads are another tool for her to work with - she still likes the 'dirty stuff' ie paint, clay, etc.
First we were shown the app. 'Live Sketch' - helpful with fine motor skills and helps kids to focus.
(I thought this might be a bit tricky for my students???)
Next we were shown the app. 'Art Rage' - (I liked this one).
You can take a photo (or use a previously taken one) and trace over it.
Good for self portraits, learning facial features
Janet said she often gave kids 'stylus' pens to use with this app.
Sorry - didn't take many notes during this session - too busy 'doing' - but check 'em out and see what you think.
