Last week, new elementary teachers in Eanes ISD attended a Balanced Literacy training.  As part of that training, Ed Techs Debbie Smith & Marianna Ricketson shared ways to use Paper 53 during interactive read alouds.  You can see an example of Paper 53 sketchnoting (and more details about the training) on Ms. Smith's Eanes Elementary Blog HERE.  In addition, Ed Tech Jennifer Flood shared another app last Friday called Thinking Blocks.  This suite of apps allows students to explore word problems using addition/subtraction, multiplication/division, and movable digital manipulatives.  See the app integration sheet for more info!

Sock Hop, Book Fair, Donuts for Dads, Parent-Teacher conferences, oh my!  We had a zillion things happening at VVE last week, so our hAPPy Friday app reveal was postponed for a week.  The talented Eanes Elementary Ed Tech, Debbie Smith, shared Post-it Plus -- a great app for capturing post-it notes you can then sort! See app integration handout HERE.  Students in our News Team have even used Post-it Plust to keep track of their story script writing for their special interest stories on Big Buddies/Little Buddies.  Try it yourself and see what you think!

The hAPPy Friday app last/this week is Stick Around -- a program that can be used to make sorting, labeling, or matching puzzles. Ed-Tech extraordinaire, Ashley Pampe at Barton Creek Elementary, shares more about this app on her blog. And she created/shared a couple of great handouts as well (here and here). Check it out!

Popplet Weather

Kindergarteners in Ms. Gardner's class have been talking about how to recognize different kinds of weather.  The students shared their understandings by using Popplet to create drawings of different kinds of weather, label them, and share their findings with each other.  What a great example of multimodal literacy that demonstrates how image and text can work together to inform their readers.  Thanks, Kindergarten!

This week our hAPPy Friday app is Pic Kids, a photo collage app.  Check out the app integration sheet for ideas on how to use Pic Kids with students grades K - 5.  Our very own Julie Cimino has been using PIc Kids for art reflections over the past several weeks (see the student example below).  Further, our iLeap participants observed Sarah Boltie at Cedar Creek even using Pic Collage for a syllable sorting activity.  There are so many creative ways to use this app across the curriculum.
