For our last session of the
year, I would like to introduce a few apps that you might enjoy exploring with
your child during the upcoming long vacation. While having fun, students will
at the same time continue to read and learn, maintaining important skills
during the long break.
(1) Reading
Younger students will surely
enjoy these nonfiction books from the Smithsonian Institute (apps designed by
Oceanhouse Media).
Older students, who read
independently, will definitely be intrigued by the following two interactive
book apps.
Alice
in New York – a different spin on the classic tale of Alice in Wonderland
Khoya
– an interactive fantasy adventure (recommended for teenagers and adults)
(2) Learning
A great app to review and
practice computation skills, i.e. addition, subtraction, multiplication and
division:
An app to strengthen
vocabulary and spelling:
A fun app for different
grade levels to test knowledge in several areas, i.e. math, science, language
and history :
(3) Photography
Some fun apps to encourage
your children to explore their creativity while capturing unforgettable moments
during the vacation:
Wishing you a relaxing long
vacation and much quality time with family and friends,
Tanja
