Jack-o-Lanterns using the iPad and Animoto

We used the Carve-a-Pumpkin app on the iPad/iPhone in math class last week. We learned about the following shapes: triangle, square, rectangle, trapezoid, and circle. We can recall the characteristics of all of these shapes, and we took some time to create some nifty jack-o-lanterns. My students are so eager to use the iPad in class, and they only have to be shown once to be able to use a new app. They saved their creations to the camera roll on the devices, and then I created two Animoto videos. I love Animoto, and so do my kiddos. It's so fast and easy!
