In honor of back to school week here is a list of 10 of them, well actually 9 since they throw in a game for fun, and they range in price from free to $2.99 USD (5 of them are in fact free). Several of them my daughter is already using (<a href="http://itunes.apple.com/WebObjects/MZStore.woa/wa/viewSoftware?id=303490844&mt=8" target="_blank">MyHomework</a>, <a href="http://itunes.apple.com/WebObjects/MZStore.woa/wa/viewSoftware?id=325580710&mt=8" target="_blank">AlgebraPrep</a>, <a href="http://itunes.apple.com/WebObjects/MZStore.woa/wa/viewSoftware?id=325758140&mt=8" target="_blank">Convert</a> and <a href="http://itunes.apple.com/WebObjects/MZStore.woa/wa/viewSoftware?id=308750436&mt=8" target="_blank">Dictionary.com</a>) so she was well on her way, but she may add a couple more after reading this article. I myself have found Convert very useful, as well as Dictionary.com, so there is something for just about everyone in this list, not just students. </p>
