Three Favourite Apps

Today we learned about our favourite three apps from the entire group. It was really interesting that none of the apps were repeated. Everyone was passionate about their apps.

Some notable apps were:
Bob's Books
The Letterman Books
Speech with Milo
Alphabooks Lite
Magic Reading 
Whiteboard lite
Memoryblock
Relaxing sounds of nature
Small Talk Phonemes
Super Why
Bubbles (for relaxation)
Balls
iZen garden
Composure
Paint sparkles
Wordfoto
Comic Touch lite
iwrite words
ABC maze
3D Words
Miss Spells Class
Talking Rex
Spell That
English word of the day


The apps I chose to demo today were:

One Rainy Day

Moo Baa LaLaLa

Tyrannosaurus Rex

All of them are stories to engage the reluctant reader. To learn more about them, please check my previous blog with a complete listing of apps.

I also found another new app this evening, Toy Story 3. It looks amazing! It is a bit pricey at $8.99, but for what it does, it is not expensive at all. I think one of best features is the ability to sing along while the text is highlighted. Really great!
