iF Poems - The First Great Poetry App for the iPad I've Seen - iPad Insight - 1 views

  •  
    "iF Poems is new poetry app for the iPad, described as 'a poetry app for school-age children and for adults of any age'. It's the first great poetry app I've seen for the iPad - apologies for the spoiler but I needed to mention that right off the bat. The app includes 270 classic poems which have been carefully selected as works that the publishers feel are 'a joy to pass down the generations, to share, to educate and enjoy'. Many of the included poems have audio clips. These are read by the actors Helena Bonham Carter, Bill Nighy, Harry Enfield and Tom Hiddleston. Here are some of its other key features: You can record yourself reading a poem. You can email a poem and email your recording of a poem. You can tap on any word for a dictionary definition. You can save poems to a Favourites page. You can search by title, author, first line or by any word. You can get a dictionary definition of any word."

Extreme Speed Booking:Using Technology to help kids love reading - 0 views

  •  
    Lissa Davies 31 Jan 12 03:28:44 The idea behind the site is to introduce students to a variety of books and form classroom book groups. How does Extreme Speed Booking work? A whole lot like speed dating. Students spend a little time with each book and then rate them accordingly with "I want to read more", "Interesting", "Not for me", or "I've already read". Students can also make a note of how interested they are in reading the book (maybe a 1-10 scale)? This process introduces students to a variety of books, genres and authors. Students may come across titles and authors they wouldn't otherwise find. It also helps teachers form classroom book groups that are of high-interest and investment to students because they had input. iLearn Technology

A Book and a Hug - About - 0 views

  •  
    If you look way up at the top right hand corner on the homepage of abookandahug.com, you'll see Register An Account and Log In. These are great tools for getting kids to make and keep lists, to make lists with friends which promotes what I call social reading, or for a class or an entire school to create a shared list. I've had mothers come and tell me that their daughters and their BFF's have made a list and are sharing it with each other. Brothers and families are doing the same thing. People do some wonderfully creative things when handed a tool with possibilities.
