I have had several parents ask me now about some of the applications we used in the classroom everyday on the iPads. Most of you are aware that apps that work on the iPads also work on the iPad mini, iPods, and iPhones. The opportunities to learn with these devices is nearly unlimited. There are lots and lots of games to practice skills from what we are studying right now (multiplication concepts) in the app store. I thought I would write an e-mail listing some of what I think are the best of the best that I have used over the years for learning. I have put the best (in my opinion) at the top in bold/red. If you know of others that you'd like to suggest, please send them my way.
