You don't. The First generation iPad cannot be updated to iOS 8. it stops at iOS 5.1.1.
Is this even possible to do? Many apps need a higher upgrade than 5.1.1
What part of no don't you understand?
It cannot be done.
As Neil points out, you may however be able to get compatible versions of Apps for iOs 5.1.1.
You'll need to get/download the App on iTunes on your computer, and then follow the instructions in the link provided by Neil.
