I know iPads are great...however, I got Nexus 7 Android tablets for a lot cheaper, and I love them! I don't even use the huge catalog desktops anymore...woohoo! Good apps are harder to find, so I made a Pinterest board of the apps I use in the library here. Most are free or very cheap.

Ideas for Beginning the School Year: I am planning to post QR codes to book talks for our Open House Night Book Fair and with photos of good and bad library behaviors.

I am learning so many new ways to use these apps!

Typically, after teachers see how engaged the students are with an activity like ChatterPix in the library, AND their students are already trained (by me) to use the app, they are more willing to try it in the classroom. We have to help teachers get over the old way of thinking, that the teacher has to know everything. It's OK to make mistakes or let the students teach you, especially when working with technology.

We used Chatterpix on morning announcements. The book cover asked student questions about what they read the day before.

Love using QR scavenger hunts in the library. The students are more engaged in the activity. @Margolibrarian

Really like the idea of using QR codes in the library  but haven't been able to do so because we haven't any ipads in the school.  That is changing and I am so excited.  I cant wait to use them in the library.  It will open up a whole new world for my students.

Canva and Piktochart are good for infographics.

Loved the ideas for using QR codes as a scavenger hunt and for book fairs.  I'll have to try these things when school starts back up in August.  Our school system is investing in Chromebooks for this coming school year.  I would like to find comparable apps and share them with our teachers and students.

Check out the Easel.ly app/site for creating infographics. It's fairly easy to use, and looks really professional.                                                                     Thanks for the QR code scavenger hunt idea! Hosting a book fair for summer school in a few weeks, and I'll definitely have students try this out!  @CarrieJHogan

I love Chatterpix!  My third grade teachers were researching inventions last year and I wanted them to use the app to make the inventions come to life but they would not do it.  I've offered to collaborate and co-teach. How do you get teachers on board for using these apps in the classrooms and integrating rather than just using them as stand alone activities in the library?

I had a teacher ask me this morning for an app or site she could use to make infographics.  Do any of you have a favorite app for that?
