Apps for iPads and iPhones targeted to chlldren.

iPad/iPhone--App for recording student behavior. Free verson allows you to follow 5 students on 3 behaviors. Pro-version is customizable and probably worth the money--good reviews on Teacher's Assistant Pro. I might try the free version first and then upgrade.

Phonetic word speller--put in phonetic spelling and word is correctly spelled. App ($4.99) for iPad, iPhone, iPod touch...would be helpful for persons with spelling issues, especially those with learning disabilities in spelling. Wish it was for android.

This app ($1.99) will pronounce any word that is typed in on a qwerty keyboard (color coded qwerty available for younger children). Assuming kids can type in a word accurately, this could be very helpful. For iPhone, iPod touch or iPad. Think of it as an e-reader for unknown words...would be very helpful to ELLs and students with word recognition difficulties because it pronounces the word.

Common Core PP for IPad, iPhone and iPod. Looks helpful.

With Pictello (Mac, iPad, iPhone), voice and words can be added to pictures; great potential for content areas and class summaries (trips and such). Recommend.

Visual stories for iPods/IPads/iPhones and such. Great app. Great potential here.

iPad app--edits video easy; use paid versions. Works well for edTPA; can link videos. Worth a look--inexpensive.

Looks like a great app (android and iPhone)--save student exemplars/artifacts and can organize them. Check out 'Three Ring'.

Instapaper--great way to organize yourself or reading online. Bookmark URL and keep all togehter. Works with iPhone, iPad, e-readers. Free, of course.

iPad, iPhone and iPod touch apps. Good review.

notetaking app with great reviews (iPhone, iPad, etc.).

iPad app for students--you can insert text for students to practice fluency or use as a teleprompter for choral reading. Free, of course, and easy to use.

App directory-great resource.

Websites hosted by a special educator. Website contains many apps for classroom teachers, too.

This App allows users to annotate PDF files. One can insert comments, questions, signatures, etc. Teachers are using it for running records when the leveled texts are put in PDF form.

I just used this site/download with an iPod project in my classroom. It is probably the most important site I have found in years. The primes is simple and there are probably pleanty of other sites like it but.... WOW. You can drop your files into the dropbox and they are saved to the "cloud". Then amazingly they are on every computer ( or iPod) you have linked to the account. I entered my account info on the student iPods and made a folder for each student, when they were done with a project, they saved it to the folder. The great thing about this was i could access their assigment from anywhere, my home computer, my iPhone, another iPod in the class, the smart board...it was limitless, I could share it with anyone, no matter where I was...how powerful. I also made a folder of "mrs. Kondrick's resources" where I put videos, audios, assignments, rubrics etc, and then they could watch them/use them at their own pace ( so ethnic that works well with our individualized daily 5 reading block.
