Assignment #2 Mielke Apps for school: 1. Dr. Seuss beginner books collection #1 I would like to use this during the summer school class that I teach on Dr. Seuss. It is a collection of 5 of his easiest books. You can have a voice read to the students. Your voice or someone else. We read a different Seuss book each day and this would be a new way for the students to hear the book. They can also read the book themselves with support for words they may not know. They can click on a word and hear it tread to them. $8.99 2. Dr. Seuss beginner books collection # 2 Again, I'd like these books for summer school. It is another collection of dr. Seuss's easiest readers. $8.99 3. Toontastic jr. Pirates I have the Toontastic free version. The students get to create and animate their own story/cartoon. They provide the voices and animation. The reviews for this version said that this would be a good app for involving parents. The parents and the students create a pirate cartoon together. $1.99 4. Writing prompts This app provides writing prompts for students. They can select different types of writing, different scenes, etc. This would be good for individuals to write during center time and for whole group writing ideas. $1.99 5. Word wizard This app is like Speak -n- Spell from the 80's. It allows students to hear letters and sounds. This would be great for my first graders learning to read. $2.99 6. Mad Libs Just like the magazine, students can create funny stories. I'd use this to review parts of speech in a fun way. Free 7. iReading HD Classic Fairy Tales 10 classic fairy tales. I would use this to share with my students the classic fairy tales because they are coming from a generation that doesn't know the fairy tales. In 3rd grade I could use them to introduce our fractured fairy tales unit. The students have such a hard time with the regular fairy tales that it's hard for them to write a fractured fairy tale. $2.99 <span style="color: #444444; font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif; font-size: 12px;">8. Missing letters vowels <span style="color: #444444; font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif; font-size: 12px;">Students put the missing vowel in a word. I'd use this with the first grade as we are learning the vowel sounds. $.99 <span style="color: #444444; font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif; font-size: 12px;">9. Pocket Chart Long and Short Vowels <span style="color: #444444; font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif; font-size: 12px;">Students match up the vowel sounds with the pictures. $.99 <span style="color: #444444; font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif; font-size: 12px;">10. Kid in Story <span style="color: #444444; font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif; font-size: 12px;">Students can be placed in a story. Their pics are on every page. I think the kids would enjoy having themselves be in the books that they are reading. You can customize the templates or use pre made templates. There are accommodations for special needs children within the app.$9.99 Animal Federation WWF free https://itunes.apple.com/us/app/wwf-together/id581920331?ls=1&mt=8&gclid=CInuxeW7gbYCFexaMgodhD4Ajg

Volleyball ace <span style="color: #444444; font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif; font-size: 12px;">Do stats for volleyball. I have a free program but this is more in depth. $89.99 <span style="color: #444444; font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif; font-size: 12px;">4. 7 little words <span style="color: #444444; font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif; font-size: 12px;">I currently use this app. It's a game that makes you really think. You have seven clues on a theme. Then each clue has a word attached to it that you need to figure out what the word is. It tells you how many letters the word is and it gives letters below. Sometimes the letters are in 2 letter tiles, sometimes 3 or even four. You have to out the letters together to form the correct word. I find it challenging but a good brain work out!
