Educational apps for the ipad
This page includes a few of my favourite apps for primary as well as links to app lists. It was inspired by Mark Anderson (@ICTEvangelist) who has written a blog post for secondary, which is well worth a look whatever age you teach! If you have some favourites that you would like to share, please tweet me @SheliBB.
