Available Tool with in app:
Pictures
Videos

All students products can be shared in a closed environment with the class or shared with parents. Let the creation, collaboration, communication and critical thinking ensue!]]> 2018-06-07 01:03:00 UTC https://padlet.com/pzola1/cgwduccml5uz/wish/265996235 nickfgreenwood https://padlet.com/pzola1/cgwduccml5uz/wish/265996600 VERY simple programming app for lower elementary (K-2). Only available on iPads. A great chance to expose students to programming at a young age. 

Sharing from the app is a bit clumsy.

I just started using this app this year to let 1st graders retell fairytales. So far it's going well. I'll have some student work to share in a couple weeks!]]> 2018-06-07 01:05:58 UTC https://padlet.com/pzola1/cgwduccml5uz/wish/265996600 marisabaum326 https://padlet.com/pzola1/cgwduccml5uz/wish/266021030 I came across this website and thought it was interesting. I'm thinking of trying it out. It's a pdf on how to log in and how the game works. It's a way for student collaborate and create games together. ]]> 2018-06-07 04:20:31 UTC https://padlet.com/pzola1/cgwduccml5uz/wish/266021030 marisabaum326 https://padlet.com/pzola1/cgwduccml5uz/wish/266021664 You have probably heard of this but my niece uses this all the time.  It's a video platform where your students go to share ideas and learn together. They can also add stickers on images to make their presentation interesting. Other students can comment on their videos. ]]> 2018-06-07 04:27:14 UTC https://padlet.com/pzola1/cgwduccml5uz/wish/266021664 nickfgreenwood https://padlet.com/pzola1/cgwduccml5uz/wish/266212801 I shared this on Marisa's Padlet too...

Great for students to create their own Stories (ebook format).
