Simply using the QR code readers that are mostly free on app stores. They can be used to access a wide range of additional teaching material whilst enhancing computing abilities. For example placing individual activities or webpages within a QR code and children access the resource at their own pace throughout the lesson, they are then able to access extension activities/tailored learning for their own level of need.

There are many apps available to support the assessment and documentation of learning. Having used both of these apps in different settings it has shown valuable alternatives to monitor, document, assess and then plan for future learning. Providing alternatives allows LSA’s, TA’s and educators to contribute valuable additions to learning assessment which in turn informs the teacher.

A great programme when looking at positional language and learning left and right. Using other objects and making the BeeBot sit next to the bear, or to the left of the chair. Used more with the younger children but still good fun.

A fantastic programme that makes children more confident with their times tables. They love competing with older children. We saw a massive improvement across the school and it can be tailored for each individual child. increasing the speed at which children can recall times table facts makes learning new topics so much easier.

This helps children learn about coding. Its such a big topic in secondary school so its great they can learn in a more fun environment.

BeeBots are a practical design great for engaging children in active learning. They are brilliant at providing children with challenges and stimulating team work. Likewise, they are a good to use during classroom activities. For example, setting up the room with obstacles and mazes to develop children's coordination and since of direction. Great for maths and learning about coordinates.

Excellent to use for schools or classes. You can adjust which ones they can access and which times tables they focus on. They can try and improve their accuracy and/or correct per minute. Adds some healthy competition and is fun way to help drill times tables. TTRS competitions are a great way to excite pupils and happen all over the country.

Physical bee-bots are great too but there is something about using the app that makes children less afraid of making mistakes. I have seen the app be really successful in special needs settings for teaching directional/positional language and general problem solving. A good introduction to programming too.

For your pre course task we would like to you gain some experience of thinking about using webtools and mobile apps to enhance learning across the curriculum. On this Padlet you will find a grid of 'how-tos' for iPad and Android apps and webtools. There is no need to look at them all, but have a browse to see what some of them do.
Next choose two or three apps or tools to try, either on a laptop or on a mobile device. You can choose apps or tools from this page or add some ideas of your own to recommend. Think about how you could use these tools to enhance learning in curriculum subjects. For example, it might help you to capture outdoor science experiences so that you can review them in the classroom. Or it might facilitate easy sharing of literacy work with a wider audience.
Finally post your thoughts about how you could use your chosen apps or tools in the primary classroom on this Padlet using the URL: https://padlet.com/helencaldwell/appsandtools2018
