Deb's Must have Apps

On student iPads:

PicCollage

  • Brainstorm ideas for "why" kids could use #booksnaps. How do you use this in small group studio.

  • What apps kids can use to make #booksnaps

  • Sit in small groups, make a #booksnap with the same passage and pass iPads to look at others thinking.

  • Create in PicCollage and send to Seesaw for an audience. (parents and peers could comment).

  • Perhaps just use it as a digital highlighter

  • Give the kids a place to share their thinking with the world. (twitter, seesaw, edublog)

Make a #booksnap and send it out to the world!

1. Take a picture of an excerpt in a book that reached out to you.

2. Open the picture in Snapchat. Yes, snapchat.

3. From there add the title and author.

4. You can type the quote as well nextx to the title and author or circle the quote using the drawing tools.
