Tips for Teachers
This free app includes a large variety of images for students to choose from in the creation of their puzzles. In addition, it allows for numerous ability levels by offering a variety of options for the number of puzzle pieces. Students may complete a puzzle and then repeat the same image but increase the difficulty by selecting a larger number of puzzle pieces.
Although ads are included as part of this free app, the location of the ads on the screen would allow for them to be blocked out relatively easily using the guided access function of the iPad. Resources:
