Tool 10

The free educational apps that I reviewed for this tool are "Constitution for iphone and ipod touch" by Clint Bagwell Consulting.  The other app is called "History: Maps of World" by Seung-Bin Cho.

The first app is compatible with 5th grade Social Studies Curriculum in that you can search and review the Constitution by Article or Amendment.  It also contained images of the original document and bios of the signers. This is also a way to practice locating important information, practicing note taking and or finding evidence to support text.  This was fairly simple and quick to load.

The second app on Maps is cool because you may search maps by categories and era so one can really see a progression of change and progress of civilization. It may be a bit slow to load however it is a no nonsense tool.
