This is a continuation of a previous post about how I incorporate iPod Touch into my students learning:

Each morning the students get to use their iPods for some morning work. The kids LOVE doing this and they are quiet!  At the beginning of the year I give the students the option of doing any 3 of the apps.  After a month or two I have them do all the applications. Here is a great list of  the apps I use.  Most are free! 

BrainPOP

Learn something different each day with the free BrainPOP Featured Movie App for the iPad, iPhone,and iPod Touch! After watching BrainPOP’s daily‐animated movie, you can test your new knowledge with an interactive quiz.

Superkids Vocab 4 – 6

A good vocab is essential to your childs future. Superkids Vocab 4‐6 provides a fun and easy way to master the words they need to excel in school and beyond.

Weatherbug

This is the only source for truly live, local weather – providing users access to the largest network of professional weather stations in the US and thousands of locations around the world.

Today in History (lite)

Today In History is the easiest/best way to get the history information you want when you want it. We are dedicated to sharing world history, and personally significant “historical” information

Inspiring though of the day

Every day a new inspiring idea will appear on your screen, making you think about life and inspiring you to live it.

You can find all of these in the iTunes store.

I also use a worksheet to guide the students along the way.  Here is the worksheet:
