Top Apps for Teachers
Music Workout
A great app for physical education teachers or classroom teachers. This app allows you to set work time (plays music) and rest time (pauses music) intervals and lets you choose how many rounds of work you want to do. This is perfect for teachers who are doing circuit weights, circuit fitness, stations, games, or anything in the gym! Also works great for classroom teachers that are doing stations or timed work that they wouldn't mind having their students listen to music. Classroom management becomes much easier when the instructor is not always worried about how much time is left and when to start the timer again. It's hands free behavioral magic and for $0.99 it's a STEAL!

Physical education teachers and coaches need to check this app out! You can’t fix what you can’t see! Video capture with slow-motion review, drawing tools, and simple sharing. This app is amazing for showing slow motion analyzed video to demonstrate how to do a skill, have students self or peer assess a specific skill, or even to help analyze and visualize what you students skills look like in class. Once analyzed and annotated, it is so easy to share the video link with a student by exporting it through so many different options (email, text message, dropbox, YouTube, camera roll, and export into other apps). It costs $4.99 but well worth the price! Get it today and see what a difference it makes!

Amazing app for physical education teachers or coaches! I have used it for timing during our track and field, speed quickness & agility, fitness testing, & many more units. It is very accurate and easy to use and gets the job done quickly! A must have!
SprintTimer is a unique timer and photo finish app that employs the same techniques as the professional equipment used at the Olympics. Start the timer and point the camera towards the finish line. sprintTimer will build an image of narrow slices of the finish line. You can then scroll along the photo to get the time when each competitor crosses the finish line with a 0.01 s resolution. sprintTimer also includes a motion controlled Lap Timer and a Video Finish tool for longer races.
