Book Creator is an excellent tool to use to create social stories for students or to get the students to create their own book.  Elaine showed a great example of a publication on "My zones" in book creator.  Another great aspect of book creator is that you can publish the book to ibooks.

Clicker Sentences;
Great for early learners.  This is a written output for emergent literacy learners.
We are developing reading and writing output. It will read aloud and will give the student a model sentence.  Therefore, the student can listen to the sentence to hear if the sentence is correct.
The top right hand corner is were you can develop the model sentences.  You can place the words in sentence order, random or guided order (error less writing).
You can email of print the document from the app.  Int he email section you can attach clicker document, attach text as file or paste text into email.
Learning Grids is specific for teachers.  It is located in learninggrids.com and it has sentences created based on subjects. 
The folder on the left hand side you can make a sentence set by adding.  Tap on the sentence set and you can develop the sentences.
ClickerDocs
Students use the range of writing support tools available to create written work.

Students that are no verbal you can use Proloquo2go. This app is very portable and easy to use. This is for augmentative communication and written output.
With Prologuo2go you can now imessage, text and email.  This is an excellent addition for the program.  Students who are non verbal will be able to use this to communicate.

Great for LD and autistic students.  Pages are listed on the side and is not very clustery.

 

Explain Everything is excellent for Math classes.  You can get students to create lessons to show their understanding.  I would like to use this as an assessment tool in my Physical Education class.  Other ideas for this app is to use it as a teaching tool for a substitute in my French class or a how to video for a skill.
