 * Description: ** Doodle Buddy is a free app that allows the user to draw, doodle, sketch, brainstorm ideas, etc. Older students like the app for quick brainstorming sessions and younger students like using the tool as a drawing tool.

** Steps to Begin Using Doodle Buddy ** >
 * **Download the Doodle Buddy App for your device** if it is not preloaded by your district: http://itunes.apple.com/us/app/doodle-buddy-paint-draw-scribble/id313232441?mt=8#
 * If asked to turn on "Push Notifications" click **"Don't Allow"**
 * Advertising Pop-Ups may appear if they do, **click "Continue"** (this is one of the draw backs of free apps :)
 * **Click on the 2X in the lower right corner to enlarge the iPod app** to iPad size OR if you have the larger iPad version you can skip this step.
 * **Begin drawing using the tools in the tray:** Chalk, Stamps, Stencils, Text, etc.
 * **When you have finished your drawing/doodle, use the wrench in the lower right corner to save the image** to the photo album or to e-mail the image to your teacher.

** Lesson Idea & Procedures: ** >> >>
 * ** Students will use their iPads to create an idea web for a story. **
 * Open Doodle Buddy
 * Select the chalk tool to pick color, line width and tool to create the circle for your idea web.
 * Practice using the text tool, stamp tool and drawing tool to create an idea web for a new story. Your story must include a title, characters, setting and a problem. (an example is located at right).
 * ** Students will use Doodle & their iPads to label the parts of a cell. **
 * Open Doodle Buddy
 * Select the background image of an "unlabeled plant cell". If you do not have an image of an unlabeled plant cell on your iPad, here is a link to one that can be saved to the camera roll and then loaded as a background image. (7th icon across the bottom)
 * Students will use the tools to label the parts of the plant cell and then e-mail them to their teacher.

** Follow-Up: **
 * Now that you have completed these two activities, brain storm other ways that you might use Doodle Buddy in the curriculum.
 * “How could you adapt this activity to work with your students in your subject area or grade?”
