Eileen Haggard’s second-graders at Stonewall Elementary were studying polygons one morning last week, a lesson that required them to draw examples of the geometric shapes and then render them in bright colors. No paper, pencils or crayons were anywhere in sight. Instead, the students did all their work on iPad tablet computers. By using their fingers like pencils, the kids could draw polygons on the iPad screens. A tap on the screen could then turn the polygons the colors of the students’ choosing.
