Showbie is a wonderful site/iPad app that I found out about from Edshelf. This is an app that interacts w/ the Showbie site where teachers create classes and assignments.

FluencyFinder
FluencyFinder is a wonderful iOS app for assessing student reading levels. This is done through a very easy to user interface where teachers print out Reading passages Grades 1 - 8 and then have students read along while marking their mistakes on their mobile device. Best of all students are created on their mobile device and all student and data tracking is done automatically which then generates reports.
FF just added 18 new reading passages for grades 6 - 8!!!

Boom Writer
Boom Writer is one of my favorite Web 2.0 site and is a very innovative way to integrate technology into a curriculum. This is done by having a class grades 3-8 create a digital story through an online competition in a safe environment. Students create chapters and then vote on which chapters should be included in the finished product. Once a book is completed it can then be published and a copy can be ordered. Right now BW offers a free class copy for new teachers that sign up.
Best of all there is an educational portal for Boom Writer which allows teachers to create student accounts.
