Spook-tacular Tech Ideas

Here's a couple Halloween themed iPad lessons I've had the opportunity to help third grade teachers with this month.  These teachers began their 1:1 journey at the beginning of October, so these lessons were the introductory lessons with these apps.

Multiplication arrays in Doodle Buddy

With the free Doodle Buddy app, students made pictorial representations of multiplication problems.

With this activity we did also see some wrong answers.  An extension to this lesson would be to take some of the student made examples, correct and incorrect, to revisit the following day.  Have the students review the multiplication arrays with the equations and explain if they are correct or incorrect and why.  

Spook-tacular Stories with Carve a Pumpkin & ChatterPix Kids App Smash

The students began with the free Carve a Pumpkin app.  With this app, they created their pumpkins and "carved" the faces.  
Then students imported the pumpkins into the free ChatterPix Kids app to record their "spook"-tacular stories!
