Educreations is a FREE app and is similar to screen chomp. It is a interactive whiteboard where you can narrate your thoughts. It is a great way to get the students to show what they know and create their own lessons. You could also use it as the teacher and make mini lessons that the children could access at home if they need help with a particular concept.
You can draw on the whiteboard or add your own image.

Classroom ideas
1. Children could record and narrate their own stories.
2. Students could model how they completed a math problem. This would give an insight into the strategies they are using.
3. Topic Work – children could label diagrams, explain concepts, create historical biographies, create a presentation on a different country etc.
Really the options are endless
