IPAD App #2

Spellboard is an excellent app for elementary students who have weekly spelling tests.  This app allows you to type and speak the word and enter the student's grade level(even in other languages to help with students foreign language classes).  After doing that, the app offers different quizzes to get you acquainted with the word and the definition.  As a student who dreaded having to learn new spelling words every Monday, with a practice quiz on Wednesday, and a test on Friday, this app would have made learning spelling words MUCH more fun.

IPAD App #1

The eClicker app is a great tool for a classroom that has enough computers for all of the students in your class. Even if you have to go to a computer lab for all students to have enough computers, you could use this app.  It offers a way to poll the entire class without students fearing to look "dumb" or "novice" if they are not catching onto the material you are covering.  In a classroom, you could use the poll as a trivia game for a social studies review.  If you are using it in a computer lab, you can use the poll to make sure all of the students understand the instructions they have been given or that you are clearly explaining the steps for them to master a computer program.  The teacher has an option to make a chart out of the polls answers.  You could use this as a feedback monitor for your lesson plans.
