Try these teacher-tested, student-approved K-2 iOS Apps! 




Little Matchups ABC Alphabet

QR Scanner (any free version)
Allow your Ss to scan and use QR (quick response) codes in the classroom!  I'm sure you have seen those little black and white boxes on something!  Scan a QR code to take you to a webpage, document, video, etc.  You can make your own QR codes too!  Click here to get started!

Scan this code for a look at our class Animoto featuring blended learning!



I "App"solutely think you should give these a try!
