iPad use:
Angle Relationships in Geometry (Grade 8) - often, students have to solve for missing angle measurements, however without sitting down one-on-one for questions, it is difficult to know their thinking processes. With the app **Explain Everything**, students can take a snapshot of their work, then record a voiceover with visual/colour supports to explain how they solved a particular angle. An example of a Grade 8 student's "Explain Everything" submission: media type="file" key="Angles.mp4" width="300" height="300"

Here is an example of a Grade 3 student's "Explain Everything" submission: media type="file" key="BM_EE_Gr3.mp4"

Here is a link to the PDF document that staff were given as a guide to Explain Everything. @http://www.explaineverything.com/uploads/4/4/0/0/4400753/ee_guide_140.pdf
