A simple site for making project checklists for your students' projects. In my opinion, this is an under-utilized aspect of the 4teachers.org website.

Users at every skill level can create bite-sized teaching morsels they can share online, again and again, with this delectable app. STUDENTS: Help each other with homework and work together on projects. TEACHERS: Tutor kids while away from school, or record a few tips to send home with them. MENTORS: Tutor youngsters from afar, without buying desktop recording software. KIDS: Share doodles and ideas with friends. Some of the most innovative teachers helped create ScreenChomp with learning and idea-sharing in mind. Here's what some of them had to say: Eric Marcos - Lincoln Elementary Math Teacher "With just an iPad and the ScreenChomp app, everyone can create on-the-go tutorials, mathcasts, or any sort of screencast. It makes screencasting a portable option - no wonky hardware necessary." Randy Micallef - 8th Grade Math Teacher "ScreenChomp will help students review ideas, and it will help me have more consistent interactions with each student. I'll also have a way to re-assess and re-test a student's understanding of specific concepts, and keep a record of those interactions through captures."

These are some great options to teach fractions on the iPad, especially for the younger grades where fractions are first introduced.
