Appy Mothers Day Weekend!!
Here is my gift to everyone, links to free apps and reviews! Whoo-hoo!
Like most educators, I’m counting down the days until summer break with both excitement and terror. (Terror on how much I still need to do before the end of the year!) You can also tell the students are getting spring fever, so hopefully some new and exciting apps will draw them back to academics. There wasn’t very many apps for older students, but at least we have a good list for the younger ones.
Enjoy the weekend and happy downloading!

Early Childhood
Happy Valley Friends: Letters, Numbers, and Shapes by Knock Knock Lab LLC
Normally $2.99
Three animated animals appear on the screen sitting at a table with three plates. You have to match the food presented on the table with what your hungry friends need and drag it to their plate. For example, the animal wanting rectangle food will get the pop tart and the animal wanting 5 items will get 5 blueberries, etc. All while working on basic matching of shapes, numbers and letters. If you get it wrong the animal will sniff it and then say no thank you. Super cute!! Besides early childhood teachers working on pre-academics, Occupational Therapists can also work on visual discrimination and finger isolation.

Cross math facts with Indiana Jones, you have this cute game where you do a bunch of math facts and when you get them right, it unlocks one of the locks on the door you are trying to get into. The tough part is you have to get all of them correct to have it unlock it. What I do like is its timed and you work on beating your personal best, you are not trying to beat the clock. Using Chromebooks? It is also a website http://www.numberworks.com/arcade

Sorry, nothing to get excited about this week. (However, check out the Always Free, Always Awesome review.)
Always Free, Always Awesome
Trello by Trello
This is a to-do list that is organized like Google Keep or like Pinterest. What I like about it is that each list is a board. All your boards are formatted like its on a bulletin board. Then each to-do list item is on a card. Why is this great? You can move the cards around from board to board. My head immediately went to visual supports!! This means you can move cards from a to-do later to a to-do now board. Or you can use it as a visual schedule. Each card is a task and as they finish the task they can move it to the done board. Or you can use it as a homework organizer. Make a board for each day of the week and then if you didn’t finish a task on Monday, you could move it to Tuesday. It’s not just text on those cards. For students who need pictures or videos, you can use that in addition or instead of words. Still not impressed? You can assign tasks to others who are using Trello. Imagine the group work now! So cool!
