More FREE apps I downloaded: Calculator WorldClock Spelling Free Toss-up Free

iPad does not come with the Clock and Calculator app that the iPod has, so I had to improvise. Used the clock and the weather apps to show differences in time zones and weather in the 2 countries that the class is studying.

Used the iPad with a VGA connector to demonstrate Google Earth to a classroom of iPod users. Really wish I had had my laser pointer with me to be able to point to what I wanted to show on the map instead of having to get up and point to things on the screen. Visited our school, New Zealand (the country that we are visiting and the location of our future Skype pal), and India (country where the family of one of our students is from). Students then found their own houses on Google Earth app.
