Non-Snow-Day Fun

We're missing quite a few of our students today, but that hasn't stopped us. Today the students were exposed to the iPad app String. This is another augmented reality app but this time, instead of the students creating the system, the trigger and response were created for them.

Students were amazed by what they saw (see the video below). When they pointed their iPads, a little green monster magically appeared on their desk and began to wander around, a dragon emerged from a wall a flew off, or a shoe began to hover in the air.

Students interacted with the virtual objects and took their pictures with them. We are now in the process of writing a story about our fantastical creatures.
