Monday 11th March - KPS hosts our first App harvest. A chance for iPad, iPod and Mac users to share and collaborate on Apps that they find useful and Apps that we can't do without. All harvested Apps from tonights Harvest will be posted here.


Summed Up - Awesome Math app that teachers groups or numbers up to 20. NZ made too !

Screen Chomp - When you want to show and record something on screen this is the perfect little app for this. Easy and kid friendly.

Puzzle Maker - The only App that I know of that allows the user to create, publish and share Word searchers. Easy to use and a brilliant little activity for spelling, lang development etc. Well worth the money. 

Blogsy - Allows you to post pics, video etc from the net and your iPad straight onto your blog in 1 easy step. Visual and easy to use for kids. Tried and Tested by Room 8 at KPS. 

Toon Camera - Turn pictures or take pictures into Cartoons and pencil sketches. 

vDictation - Speech to Text app. 


Foldify - A great way to show nets and create your own net structure.



Word Salad - Just like wordle for the iPad.



Google Forms - Check This Out as a way to create omline forms that the child can survey. You can post the link, email, or set who can see it. Then the results can be graphed and are completely instant. 




Momentsia - Picture collage, easy create and easy to share. 




Sling Note - This is a must check out App. Best note taking app I have seen for a while. Move between 2 pages, copy, cut, paste and manipulate with ease.




Pic Collage - Pic Collage app with plenty of bells and whistles. Stickers, drawings, and text. 




Sonic Pics - Put photos in and they are can be transformed into an audio visual story. Digital story telling. 




Scribble Press - Cloze activity book or story creator with heaps of functions. Beginner to Advanced Writers.

My Story - E Book creator. 



Video Star - 

Mad Pad - 


Maths Slide -

If you feel the need to push your more able kids a bit further then get into Game design and App development. Try these 2 websites out. Both are very easy to navigate and both have the ability to be played on any portable device.
