Top 5 iPad apps for the classroom
These are my top 5 iPad apps for the classroom
However, as I was writing them down, I did wonder whether to make it a top 10 list! Quite hard to choose just 5, but if I had to, these would be the ones. I have used these in the classroom loads with Reception up to Year 6 as they all lend themselves to a wide range of ages and abilities. What I like about these apps, is that they all work so well together. There are many others I love too, but these are my starting 5. What are yours?
