IPAD Roll IN
It’s time to think about getting ready to roll in the student iPads. We have roll in scheduled for June 12th which is also field day but we should be able to coordinate roll in times around field day times. We will start at 9:00 and schedule one class every 45 minutes, we will be working on the exact schedule in the next few weeks. We will have district staff plus EA’s that are freed up due to field day to help out.
Here are some things you will need to do in the classroom before you bring your class in for check in.
- Request Students do Backups (ideally teachers will provide a little class time in order to communicate to students how important this is. Here is the link to Student Backup Resources:http://bit.ly/BLSbackup. This will show up on student iPads on 5/23
- Show Roll-in Video (video will show up on Student iPads on 5/31. Teachers should give students time to watch it on their device or show it in class)
- We have a cleaning kit that will be available before your check in time. Each student is responsible for the cleaning of their own iPad.
Remind Students the day before Roll-in to:
- Charge their iPads fully (if you can’t turn it on, we can’t inspect it)
- Complete their backups (if they don’t do this, they may lose their work. No guarantees)
- Update to latest iOS
- Do Not Remove covers, they will be removed by adults only. We will store the iPads with their covers with the exception of 5th graders who will take their covers home.
The district suggests that you have your students leave their iPads at school with bricks and cords leading up to roll in. This way we will have them all.
