I have been looking at several of the iPad apps that turn the device into enhanced marker board.My current favorite is Doodle Buddy. It is a free app, and can be used at almost any grade level.  With over 44,000 colors to choose from, this app will never get boring.  The app also includes backgrounds, text and stamps to include with your work.  Doodle Buddy is great for creating artwork, practicing math problems, spelling words, and much more.
I have given some suggestions below, but this app really lends itself to fit in almost anywhere.


Practice spelling words, forming letters, writing sight words, and even sentences.
Do math problems - long division, multi-number multiplication, algebra and geometry.
Tell a picture story using backgrounds, stamps and drawings.
Draw a picture and write a complete sentence describing what is happening in the story.
Practice the parts of speech.
Play Pictionary with a friend or group.
