Ipods are being used in the classroom to assist students with reading.  Reading apps are used to help students read smoother and improve fluency. Students are putting the 3R's into practice by rereading, recording and reflecting.  I believe this is a great tool in that it allows the students to hear what they sound like and they will be able to work on their weaknesses.  The goal is to make their reading sound as if they are talking. This app allows students to work independently while the teacher works one on one with other students.  Students are engaging in something new and that can make all of the difference in the world.


I could use this app in the classroom to help students with improving fluency.  This is awesome.  These students are self assessing.  This is amazing.  As they said in the video we have come a long way  baby!!
