My system seems to be going well. I have had only 2 students venture into the "off limit folders" and because I know my apps well, I quickly heard they were where they were not supposed to be and redirected their learning. Everyone else is just very excited to use the apps in our monthly folders.
What's new this month?
Mathletics (what I've said about it previously)
If you have not yet got this free app - get it! All the kids in our school have user names and passwords to access it. It is excellent practice that meets our Manitoba Curriculum.
Spelling City - a class favorite from September.
Another freebie that has word list personalized by ME! Search my name "Christine Williams" to find the word lists.
Monster Squeeze
This app is $1.99. I was lucky and got it for free. The kids love it, but I don't think I would pay that price for it. Watch for a sale instead.
Mo Willem's Pigeon App
For 4.99 we will have hours of fun with this app. We will draw the pigeon, create our own stories and listen to each others stories. It is kid friendly, easy to use. Kids ALWAYS love it!
Doodle Buddy
It's free and it's FUN! We have almost all had a turn using Doodle Buddy with our idress app project. We have also learned how we can use Doodle Buddy to practice our spelling words. I think this month we will be creating our own art work with Doodle Buddy.
This is my last month with the pod. Not sure how I will live without it come December.
