The other day when I was helping my daughter get geared back up for school. We were working with her new Verizon Ellipsis 7 Tablet and were able to find a few great apps that compliment her learning style and keep her skills sharp. It made think about when I was her age, back in the 80’s, and what tools my parents used with me. I remember having flash cards for almost every subject: addition, subtraction, multiplication, division, states/capitals, and even the U.S. Presidents. Back then I hated those cards but now I appreciate how much they actually helped me. Plus, after practicing with my flash cards I would use my “Speak & Spell”. I would play games or take spelling tests with that hand held machine every day.

Luckily, now my daughter has the Verizon Ellipsis 7 to help tie everything together in the learning process. We sit down and use apps from the Google Play Store to work through her lessons together. We can easily take advantage of free learning apps that help with spelling, math, language arts, and science. In addition to the apps, we have the full power of the internet at our fingers. Google Earth is one of our favorite resources when we are learning about geography. Or a simple search for Bill Nye the Science Guy can yield several great experiments to try.
