Sketchy
This is my favorite application! It can be used in every curriculum area! Sketchy allows students to create animations frame-by-frame. I've had students animate math algorithms, vocabulary words, science diagrams, and social studies concepts. I've like to say that if Sketchy was the only application on a handheld, it's still worth the money for it's awesome educational benefit! Part of GoKnow's Handheld Learning Environment.
