Choose one of the avatars supplied when you begin or take a photo to use instead. Enter your name and age and you’re off. You can select your challenge and time limit and then play against your own records or against others – so this could be used easily on a class-based device. It’s definitely worth considering having on a parent’s smartphone, child’s tablet or school iPad.]]> 2017-04-25 05:50:43 UTC https://padlet.com/h00349763/ioxaflaou9y2/wish/168012336 h00349763 https://padlet.com/h00349763/ioxaflaou9y2/wish/168012724 This is a fabulous way to investigate the systems of the human body.  Your children can interact with the organs and see how they relate to each other. They will get to explore the basic human anatomy through the skeletal, muscular, nervous, circulatory, respiratory, and digestive systems. This app also makes use of the camera tools on the iPad when examining the eye and sight!  It’s well worth having on school tablets to compliment topics on the human body.]]> 2017-04-25 05:56:55 UTC https://padlet.com/h00349763/ioxaflaou9y2/wish/168012724 h00349763 https://padlet.com/h00349763/ioxaflaou9y2/wish/168012852 This free app is a great introduction to coding for younger pupils.  It takes them step by step through simple instructions, gradually building up sequences. From here, children can move onto a variety of other coding apps and then onto classic computing programmers such as Scratch.]]> 2017-04-25 05:58:25 UTC https://padlet.com/h00349763/ioxaflaou9y2/wish/168012852 h00349763 https://padlet.com/h00349763/ioxaflaou9y2/wish/168013234 This is a great app for the younger children who can see their colored illustrations come to life with augmented reality! The idea is simple – download the app and then print the free coloring sheets. The children then color them and then use the iPad / iPod / iPhone to bring the image to 3D life there on the table in front of you! You can have rockets firing off, a bird wandering around the table or a planet spinning in mid-air!  Once you’ve enjoyed the free activities there are plenty of ‘paid for’ coloring sheets to try out, including those that will motivate the older children! It’s a bit of fun and well worth a go!]]> 2017-04-25 06:03:48 UTC https://padlet.com/h00349763/ioxaflaou9y2/wish/168013234 h00349763 https://padlet.com/h00349763/ioxaflaou9y2/wish/168013664 This is one of several apps helps in education.  We like the fact that these apps provide a balance of teaching  and instruction, opportunities to practice key skills and quizzes to test the learners knowledge.  They cater for a range of levels and increasingly complex operations. This app, as the name suggests, focuses on addition and subtraction but there are other great apps covering multiplication, division, fractions and conversions.]]> 2017-04-25 06:10:02 UTC https://padlet.com/h00349763/ioxaflaou9y2/wish/168013664
