Jennifer Posted January 2, 2013 Share Posted January 2, 2013 What are your most used iPad apps for homeschool and how do you use them? Specifically for middle and high school. I don't use my iPad a lot and I would like to start using it more. Thanks! Jennifer Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
UmMusa Posted January 2, 2013 Share Posted January 2, 2013 The CNN student news app is nice for middle school and older. It would be nice to use for daily or weekly current events. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jilly Posted January 3, 2013 Share Posted January 3, 2013 Our favorite app this year for my eighth graders has been Shakespeare in Bits. We have done Romeo and Juliet and A Midsummer Night's Dream so far, and we are going to start another one soon. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chris in VA Posted January 3, 2013 Share Posted January 3, 2013 Can most of these be used on Android, too? I'm so clueless about apps! I got a Nexus 7 for Xmas from dh, and want to load it with cool stuff (and dd got a kindle, so we want to load up her's, too) but I don't want to pay for a lot. Can you guys indicate which are free?
