Running Record Calculator https://itunes.apple.com/us/app/running-records-calculator/id528814882?mt=8 is the best app I have on my iPad. It does everything you need on the free version, but for a couple bucks, you can get the paid version with extra bells and whistles. I’ve saved a load of time by using this app when calculating wcpm and accuracy %.
Explain Everything is $2.99. https://itunes.apple.com/us/app/explain-everything/id431493086?mt=8 It will record your voice as you annotate over images and it will let you play it back. This is great for creating step by step explanations or to put in the hands of students and let them explain their learning.
