Technology and Apps

I just wanted to give y'all some apps and sites we use in the classroom that can be great tools at home as well!

iPad:

  • My Story- Book Maker for Kids: in this app, kids create stories and can record their voice telling the story. We have used it to make books about our group, books about colors, and books with our class members' names in it.
  • Whiteboard app: We use this to practice writing names, sight words, letters, and spelling.
  • Haiku Deck: This is similar to My Story-Book Maker, but you can't record your voice.
  • Letter and number tracing apps: These are great for muscle memory and practicing writing the letters in the correct format.


Websites:


Software used at school:
  • iStation: we use iStation throughout the week for reinforcement and for our assessments. Each student has their own login. Students can login online at home, if parents download the software to their home computer. It is free. http://www.istation.com/
