iPads? I Can't Wait!

This post is in response to a blog I found - Mobile Learning: 5 Apps and Web Tools for Elementary School Students

As some of you may remember because it's been discussed in previous classes, our school is new to SMARTboards the last few years. I am the last class in the school to receive one due to funds and we have been waiting to see if the company will come out with a product geared more for kindergarten level. As the year is progressing, I made a suggestion to my principal that I would prefer a small group set of iPads rather than a SMARTboard. Well, our carnival was last Friday and I am told that we raised enough money for me to get at least 3, WOO HOO! When I found this post about some great apps for elementary students I was excited to bookmark it. The post lists the following apps: Puppet Pals HD, i-Nigma, Nearpod, Martha Speaks Dog Party, and Motion Math. 2 of the 5 apps are above my students level but the other 3 look great and I can't wait to check them out. So I am now on the search for great apps to use with my students (any suggestions would be most helpful). :)
