I missed the day Karen Lirenman came to show us apps to use in our classrooms but thanks to my triad group, I am putting the pieces together.
From what I gather, the apps Karen focused on were creative in nature. Apps that could be easily used by the students to showcase their creativity, and who they are creatively. In my opinion, most, if not all apps that are brought into the classroom should be both easy to use and easy to be creative with.
An app that fits this bill is “Book Creator,” where students have the choice of what kind of book they want to make and how they want it to look. This is an app I would love to use in my future teaching as it seems like a great way to get kids excited about writing as they would be working toward a final product that is creatively personalized and easy to share with others.
I talked about the book creator too! good job on catching that from the missed presentation! I thought it was such a cool app-students have the choice to create something and even publish using the book creator app. Your blog posts has good details for missing a presentation-so that’s good!
