Love the Apple iPod line of products. The phone and music capability is great. The apps make them twice as attractive as other smartphones. I have personally downloaded several apps for my own children for long driving trips and flights.
There's the FREE Spanish Essentials by AccelaStudy® – Renkara Media Group, Inc. and the SAT Math Prep 800 – Allen Resources, Inc. that my children frequently use.
Apps are added daily so the list is continally growing. The Top 50 FREE Educational Apps just scratches the surface.
Math Drills Lite – Instant Interactive and Basic Math – Explorer Technologies are great sites for students to practice their math facts, number sense, and strategies.
A good time to employ the iTouch in the classroom can be for early finishers and or in a workstation.

We saw iPod Touches being used very successfully as workstations in the Power to Learn grants. One teacher had her second graders use the notes app to record their sky journals and email them to her. With the microphone, you can record students reading or sharin their thinking. Of course, there are always the content apps, videos and books that students can use as well.
