WALT: to express an opinion and use powerful sentence starters to persuade the reader to agree with my opinion
I strongly believe that we should not have free time on iPads unless we are using learning apps. Playing games does not help with learning.
Evidence shows that these apps will increase our learning; Sumdog, Hopscotch, Math Panda, Kiwi Kid News, Storybird and
Fractions. Hopscotch is especially good because it is used for working out percentages and making repeating patterns.
As we know there are heaps of games that have been released from the App Store and played world wide. For example Crossy Road and Minecraft are two popular games. These are the most distracting games in the world and do not help with our learning. They take over our learning time and our brains. We should not use games at school. We should not get free time on iPads for this reason.
It is obvious that during Managing Ourselves time we use good learning apps to catch up on work we need to do or finish. We use our iPads for working on things like vocabulary, Blogs, Kiwi Kid News and other learning apps. This a good way to use our iPads because we are using learning apps.
In conclusion I think iPads are good because they're good for learning as long as they aren't used for games.
