iPad Apps

I decided to compile a list of free apps that I use in my classroom on the iPad Mini.

General Classroom Use:

  • BrainPOP: quick videos on various topics with quizzes at the end












  • YouTube: so many videos. . . 












  • KeyNote: PowerPoint equivalent for iPad












  • Doceri: Drawing and notes tool









  • Educreations: Drawing and notes tool that has a website.  Videos you create can be emailed and shared online









  • Science 360: Current news articles and videos with an eye catching display












  • ClassDojo: Allows teachers to track student behaviors and generate reports



Earth Science:
  • QuakeFeed: Shows current earthquakes on globe with magnitude











  • EarthNow: Shows current statistics for the globe such as temperature and ocean surface salinity











  • Planets: Current locations of planets and constellations by moving the iPad around











  • The Weather Channel: Need I say more?











  • My Radar: Current radar maps



Life Science:

  • Pangea Safari: Simple simulation of ecology with producers, herbivores, and carnivores
