June 2, 2016 The popular app Poetics is free today and only for a limited period of time. Poetics provides students with a powerful tool to combine imagery and words to create expressive poems and engage in creative poetry writing activities. Similar to Poetics, we curated five more interesting iPad apps you can use with your students in class to enhance their poetry learning. Check them out and share with us your feedback. Enjoy 1- Poetics- create, write and share visual poetry ‘Poetics is a visual poetry app that combines moveable text with photographic imagery.Take a picture and write anything you feel, whether a poem, one word or a caption. Or start with text and add an image later. At the touch of a finger, words playfully collide and interact, giving a physical feeling and connection as you scale, rotate, lift and drop them.’ 2- POETRY from The Poetry Foundation ‘With the Poetry Foundation's universal iOS app, you can now take thousands of poems by classic and contemporary poets with you wherever you go. From William Shakespeare to César Vallejo to Heather McHugh, the Poetry Foundation's app turns your phone, iPod Touch or iPad into a mobile poetry library’ 3- Poetry Daily ‘Poetry Daily is an anthology of contemporary poetry. Each day, we bring you a new poem from new books, magazines, and journals, chosen from the work of a wide variety of poets to provide you with a window on the broad range of poetry offered annually by publishers large and small.’ 4- Poetry Everywhere ‘ Poetry Everywhere is a collection of short poetry videos featuring contemporary poets reading their own works, introduced by Garrison Keillor. It’s pure poetry! With easy navigation, this app is a sure way to provide reflection and inspiration.’ 5- Glossary of Poetry Terminology ‘Poetry Glossary provides you a comprehensive list of terms related to Poetic terminology with its short description/meaning which guides you in understanding the terminology better.’ 6- Poetry Creator | Verses - Poetry, Poems & Poets ‘Ever wonder what it would be like to mash-up a Shakespeare poem with a Hip Hop Song? Verses is a new iPhone and iPad app that puts a fresh spin on a cherished classic: refrigerator magnet poetry. We built this app to set your creativity ablaze with Verses's limitless word mixing possibilities that allow you to become a kind of dictionary DJ. After creating a poem out of your own personal mix of dictionaries, you can send your creation to friends via email or publish it in your Facebook photo album! (network connectivity required)’.

Technology Thursday is a weekly linky dedicated to all things technology related. Check out our Tech Thursday page for details on how to link up! Today I am going to share my 5 go-to apps for practicing multiplication facts. Monster Math My first app is Monster Math. The whole game is built around a story of a monster trying to get his friend back. Students are walked through various stages to find the monster's friend. Teachers can edit the number ranges, operation and so much more! Times Tables Quiz Up next is Times Tables Quiz. This is your basic multiplication drill app. I love that the numbers are easy to see, the score changes in the upper right corner (the more quickly they go the higher their points) and the app itself is easy for students to maneuver. Times Tables Game My next go-to app is Times Tables Game. This app has a fun"ninja" style and my students love it! Teachers have the ability to set the range of numbers for the multiplication problems. There is also a timer, so if students are taking too long- it times them out and their turn is over. Math Monsters Bingo The next app is definitely a student FAVORITE. it is called Math Monsters Bingo. Students are given a multiplication problem at the top of their screen and they click the product at the bottom. A little monster marker shows up! Their goal is to get 5 in a row. For each product, there are numerous places a student could pick so they need to not only know the product, but be strategic in choosing one that will help them get to 5 in a row. Multiplication Flash Cards Match The last app is called Multiplication Flash Cards Match. Students play a memory style match game with the flashcards! One flashcard will show the number sentence and the other shows the product. The levels keep changing as students progress through the game. As they make a match the flashcards "explode" into little bits of confetti! So much fun!! I hope that these five apps will be helpful in your classroom! I know that my students always need a bit of practice with their math facts. Using new apps helps to keep their interest up and each app offers a different challenge!

It's me, Matt from Digital: Divide & Conquer, to share some of my favorite math apps for improving fact fluency (and making them more fun for the kids). I have a small bank of iPads in my room, and when they're not being used for break time to play mine craft, math fact fluency practice is the big agenda item. Below are some of my go-to math fact fluency apps. These are the apps that keep my kids engaged, motivated to learn, and are extremely easy to use. I've been using most of these for a couple of years. OPERATION MATH The James Bond of math games. The time and number of problems are the villains. Speed is your friend. Games last only a minute, so my students can get in quite a few in a short time. I love this game. $ MATH HEROES Surprisingly simple and easy to use. My students and own children love it. They seem to really enjoy the ninjas fighting (go figure). Lots of levels to choose from, about 10 problems in a level, and it moves quick. It's perfect and my students will play it forever. OPERATION MATH SQUAD This is the team version of Operation Math. Kids compete against the time and even against other students. Four kids can play at a time, but it's really engaging for them. Plus, if students miss a certain amount they get locked out of the game, until the next round. These games are about five minutes long. Just be ready for the kids to get loud when they play. $ SUSHI MONSTER Monsters and sushi. The kids eat this up, no pun intended. It's from Scholastic and fun and easy to use. It's new to me, but my students are quick to use it. It'll be on our iPads for awhile. MATH VS ZOMBIES Exactly what it says it is, math and zombies. Knock out the zombies with math facts. It's gone through a few updates and keeps improving. They've also added more number sense and counting to the app, which is definitely a plus. $$ YODEL OH! Made by the same company who did Operation Math, it reminds me of the Price Is Right game with the yodeler. Same great music too. It's awesome. $ These are my six go to math fluency apps. Most can be changed for addition, subtraction, multiplication, and division. They're also game based, which is pretty important for the kids because math facts can be pretty boring. I don't blame them. Sure, most of them cost $2.99 --but based on my bad math it averages out to about three cents a week. I'll take it.
