"I am thrilled to have Rebecca from ThirteenRedShoes back with us today. She has a great list of app recommendations for the young scientists in our lives.

 

Mariah asked me to put together a post on science apps available for children. Here are some great new apps that I have encountered recently. Please do leave the links to new applications in the area of science that you have found, as I would love to see more. This is an area that Master R loves and therefore we are always on the look out for new and engaging applications.

 

Here are my top science finds for little ones ages four and above:"

Blio is an ereader that can read various formats including PDF, epub and XML.  What does this mean for students with reading disabilities or dyslexia?

 

Blio includes:

> a text-to-speech feature that will cost $10;

>  a sync feature where it will sync audio books with test and highlight the word as it is being read;

> a notetaking feature where you can select text and add a note;

> a visual customization feature that can change the view, text size, etc.

>  a reading speed feature;

> a search text feature;

> a one-touch look up feature that can locate the definition of a word.
