**Assignment #1 iTunes** It was interesting to see that iTunes offers more than just music. When I get the newer update I will like to explore more of the available educational sites and what would be appropriate for my students. **Assignment #2Applications**

__Educational apps 1)National Geographic for Kids.  This site has fantastic photographs and provides informative animal stories and weird but true animal facts.  Great to enhance science lessons.

2)Booksy :School edition-learning to read platform K-2. This can provide reading help to students and it can help the teacher track student progress.

3)PBS Kids video. Videos can be used to supplement reading, math, and science lessons.

4)Science 360 for iPad. Another support site for science lessons. Video and images can be saved within this app.

5)BrainPop Featured movie. On this app students can watch a movie on over 750 lessons in all subject areas and then test the students with an interactive quiz.

6)Toontastic. This will allow students to draw and animate their own cartoons and will promote storytelling skills and imaginations.

7)Bugs and Bubbles. The app gives students practice with counting, letters, shapes, and much more.

8)The Great Cookie Thief-starring Cookie Monster. This is used for creating posters using virtual photo booth, paint brushes, an lots of color. Also included is word highlighting for readers.

9)Splash math-1st grade worksheet of numbers, counting, Addition, and Subtraction. This would be useful for advanced K students especially with addition and subtraction.

10)Drawing Pad. The app allows students to explore Anne create their own art using crayons, markers, paint brushes, colored pencils, stickers, roller pens and more.

Personal apps

1)Calorie counter and diet tracker. To help me count calories in the different types of food I eat.

2)Daniel Miller Daily workouts. To help put a variety in my exercise routine. This will help keep exercise from coming too monotonous.

3)Clean Eating. This app is about consuming food in its most natural state or as close as possible. To help eat more healthy.

4)1000 Places to see before you die. Hopefully when my husband and I retire we will get to travel and see some of these terrific places!

5)The Photo Cookbook-Baking. I enjoy baking yet I like to see what the end result is supposed to look like when it's done! It helps me to know if I have done everything correctly.
