Paper, pencil, whiteboard, textbook are the tools you need if you want to go to school.But recently, you can add another one to the l【1】: an iPad.Because the popular Apple tablet is not only useful for s【2】 the Internet and watching videos, but it is also being used to make learning fun.

Scientists now know that we learn b【3】 when we are enjoying ourselves, so recently software developers have made iPad applications (应用程序) that look like video games, but have strong e 【4】content. One of the best e【5】of this new form of teaching application is Futaba , a game in which up to four children try to recognize a spinning (旋转的) object, and then identify w【6】it is. The game can be used to teach English, math, foreign l【7】, or just about anything,and students love it. Teachers can even make their o【8】questions. The important thing is that children enjoy the game, and don't even r【9】how much they are learning!

So the next time you have to choose between making your child study or letting them play a game, just remember... they could do b【10】 at the same time!
