Ipads in the Classroom

Ipads are a wonderful resources to have available in the classroom!  Students can collaborate to do research, play games, and even use them to connect to the projector.
Here are just a few great programs designed for the classroom:
Socrative - A site that allows the teacher to quiz or poll the class using Ipads, Ipods, laptops or smartphones.
Teacher Pal - Allows the teacher to take attendance and make notes.
Screen Chomp - Acts as a whiteboard and allows what is written to be recorded.
Keynote - Acts like powerpoint, but works for the Ipad.

These are only a few examples for teachers.  There are also seemingly endless apps for student activities.
