iPad Craziness!!!

It seems that many teachers across the county now have access to iPads for use in their classrooms.  Some lucky teachers may have a one to one ratio of students to iPads, others have one to share with the entire class, and then some of us have to track down the one iPad the school has to share with multiple classes if not the entire building.  No matter how you have access...many of us have this feeling of I have an iPad...now what?  

Which leads to more questions.  How do I use this in my class? What apps do I purchase? When do I use it? There are MANY websites and blogs that will give you some excellent tips and advice on all things iPad in your classroom.  Here are a few of my favorites.
