2Simple

[Guest]

Hi there

Anyone using the newly updated 2simple APP for recording observations.

I've been trying it out on my 2 year old at home and am hopefully going to use it in school

With my F2 class.

It's a free downloadable APP for Early Years :-)

I downloaded it and then decided I didnt want to risk taking my own ipad into work.

I have mentioned the app though and suggested tablets might be the way forward for this sort of thing in nursery!!

We've just invested in 16 iPads - I think that the Early years will be using them the most for saving teachers time :-)

Hi Brown Girl Running. I had a look at the 2simple app too. Is it free after the trial period?

Hi

I'm not too sure ... I want to give it a try and see how I get on with it- I'll then go to my head teacher as anything has to be better than taking pictures uploading them printing them out / cutting and sticking them into individual profiles and then writing a label to go with it! anything to save time !

As far as I can see (from this page) once the trial is over you pay an annual fee (quite cheap for childminders, but getting more expensive as the size of the setting/number of devices increases.

Hi. We're using the Orbit Early Years website and app, which is free and allows us to share information with parents too.

ABC blog recommended Orbit too. Am hoping it will be easy to use!!

Hi!

 

You've read my mind! I've been looking for anyone who had used either Orbit or 2 simple? We are hoping to get some tablets in our setting and was just looking for some advice on the benefits of either Orbit or 2 simple. I know Orbit allows next steps to be jotted down.

 

Any advice greatly appreciated ladies!

 

Thank you!
