Hearing that "Book Reports" or "Book Reviews" from students to a class and or a teacher, provided inspiration for thinking about iPad apps that could be great support for a book review.

Reading books is still an important part of a student's learning process.  Use these seven options for students reviewing books.  Many of these options allow for students to produce a product to the camera roll.  Sharing it is as easy as sending it to the students' Google Drive.  See the presentation.

Many tools could have been used for analyzing, but our students have successfully used Explain Everything prior to this class period.  Using the tech tool over again was helpful because it allowed for the learning curve to be minimal.  This allowed students to focus on the data and the mathematics summarizing.

Original idea from @rmbyrne at FreeTech4Teachers!  Thank you!
