Apptastic Mondays

I have decided that I am going to dedicate Mondays to discussing the various different apps that can help teachers. We all need something to look forward to on Mondays!

There are so many apps for various different devices. While most of these are for fun, such as games, there are some that can be extremely beneficial to teachers. Some apps can help teachers be more organized and some can even be helpful inside of the classroom for the children.  I will discuss one of each of these types of apps (organizational and educational) every Monday.

The educational app that we will discuss this time is called Ansel and Clair: Paul Revere’s Ride. This is an app that is designed to help students understand Paul Revere’s importance in American History. It takes the students on an interactive ride with Paul Revere.  The app helps to teach the students about the key people and events that led up to the American Revolution. This is available for IOS for $4.99.

TeacherKit is one of the apps that are designed to help teachers stay more organized. It is a personal organizer that is designed to specifically for classroom teachers. It can create class lists, enter grades, make seating charts, take attendance, and so much more. Most of the things that this app helps with can, when done manually, take a teacher a long time to accomplish. This app is free and it is available for IOS and Windows 8.

If you have any app ideas that you think I should discuss on the next post your input would be helpful!
