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

Teaching Channel

Another great free resource is the Teaching Channel . I used it when I was looking for ideas on teaching middle schoolers integers. On the website, I found a video and lesson plan for a scenario a teacher set up for her students to make it more tangible. They email weekly with videos on various topics, like common core.

Freebie: Interactive 3D Models

DewWool is a newer store with many free online resources! I found the " Root Structure " diagram and thought it was too good not to share.  This is for you if you need resources for students to label structures. (It also includes math and elementary education resources.) The resources appear to be simple and easy to use. One downfall, because it's free, is there are advertisements. I know this was a concern with the last school I worked at students: viewing unapproved materials via popup ads. Photo by  おにぎり  on  Unsplash
