It has been SO long since I’ve written a Weekend App Attack post! If you are new to my blog, I will often review an app for the iPhone, iPad, or an Android based tablet on the weekends that are helpful for your classroom. Since I have tablets for my students, helpful educational apps are something I am always on the lookout for.
And, if you know me (even a little bit) as a teacher, you know I l-o-v-e engaging students in their learning with science integration. It’s a natural subject that is motivating to young learners and it is, in my opinion, the best subject to connect learning to the real world.
Today I’m reviewing a science app called KidScience. If you don’t have this app, it’s a must! I’m always searching for new science experiments to do with my kids. I love to use science experiments as a “reward” for my kids. It’s a win-win situation. They think they are getting a big treat by doing an experiment. In reality, I’m the winner because they are LEARNING for their reward and super engaged! (See how sneaky I am?) π
Thanks for the tip! I am currently downloading the app. π

Going to check out this app…love the ease of finding something you're studying OR what you have on hand. (ie: Sunday night lesson plans without a trip to the store!)
