-Quiver (AR): This was a fun app. Some of the boys need to strengthen fine motor skills, Quiver provides some fun pages to color. Afterwards, you can "scan" the page and it creates a 3D model of their coloring page. It was a fun center activity for kids that finish early.
-Musical Spelling (I have done musical math. Musical spelling seemed the next logical step. The students really seemed to love doing regular spelling drills, but with holding musical instruments: 1 beat per letter) I am rotating between music spelling, white board spelling, and spelling "bee." They actually seem to enjoy spelling especially the rules: "Q & U stick like glue" "EA makes the sound E" "E is a bully & makes the vowel say its name.."
-NewsEla (I have been using timeforkids or CNN/BBC to show news articles. I love that this has reading levels, so I can have the students read it)
-Played around in Aimsweb/Powerschool. (Found where to do progress monitoring. I love that the class size is small enough that this is possible. Really makes me worry about doing it in larger groups)
