The mobile (hand-held) entertainment seems to be all around us. Phones, electronic players and hand-held game consoles are a symbol of status. If we can find educational games and content, why not use them in the classroom.
From the applications I reviewed, I liked Ken-Ken and Sudoku(math related). The USA Factbook seems promising to study the states for 3rd grade. The NASA Lunar Electric Rover Simulator looks like a great real-life game of planetary exploration. HearPlanet may be good for the students to get information about places they have not seen.
The planets application may be good to research the planets as it is in the TEKS for 3rd grade. They can choose their favorite planet(s) and write down information in their science journal, along with a colored drawing.
