First, have you tried just restarting your iPad? If so and that hasn't helped, if you can find a way to get to the Settings app you might try resetting the Home Screen Layout:

Settings -> General - > Transfer or Reset iPad

Tap Reset, then tap Reset Home Screen Layout

If that doesn't help or you can't get to Settings, you may need to restore your iPad to factory settings, though someone else here may have other suggestions.

Regards.
