Technology Tuesday (8th edition)

Welcome! I'm glad you stopped by to visit.

The most exciting thing happened a few days ago when I read a post about
organizing your desktop by my friend, Kristin, A Teeny Tiny Teacher.
I quickly organized the desktop on my personal computer.
Voila!
My school computer is next...photo coming soon.

I thought I'd share an app that has multiple uses today. 

 Draw and Tell HD by Duck Duck Moose, Inc.

Here's what I like about it...

1.  Students can create things with a variety of paper, blank, lined, grid, 

fancy designs and multiple colors.

2. It offers a variety of writing tools and icons for students to add to their writing/drawings.

3.  Students can make a recording about their creation.

4. The creations can be save to the camera roll and emailed to share with parents.

5. It also has a variety of coloring pages if you have a student who has limited fine motor skills.  This feature would make it easier for them to add a picture to their writing.  

It may also motivate reluctant writers or be a reward for any student.

6.  This app could be used to publish writing. 

 I think it would be a great way to publish poetry or for reading response. 

At the beginning of the year, my first graders could use this app 

to share their mental images as we read a story.

Here are a few screen shots of the three lined writing paper.  

It also includes a wide ruled notebook paper and many other paper choices.

Exciting news!
