Sketchnote One Pager

I would recommend this one pager for secondary, it is easy to slip into a three ring binder and use as a cheatsheet whenever doing sketchnotes.

iPad Apps 

Do your students have access to iPads? Here are the best FREE apps for sketchnotes. If you would like to draw on your iPad with me today then I would recommend Paper by 53, as my go to. If you are thinking about getting serious with sketchnotes then I would recommend Procreate, it is what I use. ​

Paper® is the immersive sketching app for capturing ideas anywhere. Over 25 million people have found their personal creative space in Paper—handwriting notes, drafting, diagramming, sketching, and giving form to their vision

Paper 53

Create vector artwork with image and drawing layers you can send to Adobe Illustrator CC or as flat images to Photoshop CC.

Adobe Draw

Doodle Buddy Gold is the most fun you can have with your finger! Finger paint with your favorite colors and drop in playful stamps. Connect with a friend to draw together over the Internet.

Doodle Buddy (K-2)

Procreate is the most powerful sketching, painting and illustration app ever designed for a mobile device, built for creative professionals.
$9.99 Currently in Apple Store | NOT FREE! |

Procreate

Chromebook Options (touch screen only)

Have you played around with Google Jamboard! If you are a google district this is the way to go! It is a part of your google account so students don't have to create an account. It is collaborative like all google products. You get more on the app for iPad which is a bit odd but it works so well. Personal preference is paper or iPad but this will work.
