4/4/14 Appy Friday!

Here are my picks from this week's Free App Friday for Pre-K-12th graders. I pull from several websites and app finder apps to come up with this list. Remember these deals might be only for today, so hurry!


Elementary:

Giraffe Cards by Patrick Wibbeler Productions
A simple math flash card app where you can select by number groups and allows you to turn on algebra. Plus no ads!

What time is it Mr. Wolf? by Teacher's Pet
An app that works on both matching analog to the words of telling time (half past, quarter to, etc.) as well as matching analog to digital. You can also customize the answer field (2-8 answers).

Place Value Chart by Ulrich Kortenkamp

This is a school tool app like a calculator. It does not teach concepts, nor is it a game or activity with music and cute animals. This app is great for a classroom activity. It is also good for students who have fine motor problems and could not easily use physical manipulatives. User tip: You shake the iPad to clear the chart.

Middle-High School

LoiloNote
A photo mind mapping and multi-media presentation app that allows you to create with photos, videos, text, web contents, maps and own drawings. Has sharing feature if you are connected to the same wifi (called a tunnel). It is also connected to dropbox. Most of the app is intuitive to use and you can tap the help icon to figure out the rest. Great for collaborative projects! (Can you say technology standard (NETS-S)?)

All grade levels:
Timer +Touch
By SixAxis LLC
A visual timer that is easy to set up and use. The time is color coded: minutes in read, hours in blue and seconds in green. There is a long list of different alarms.

*Disclaimer: I'm just passing on iPad app deals I had a chance to download, take a few minutes to mess with it and I found interesting. These apps may not apply to your student and/or may not be considered an Assistive Technology tool (An app that applies to your student's IEP goal(s) they are not making progress in despite the modifications in place).
