I recently attended a professional development session about math apps, and I've collected the most popular to share with you! These were recommended for a K-2 classrooms and are between $0-$5.

Thank you so much for this list!
ReplyDeleteThe Math Tappers, Number Pieces, and Hungry Fish are at the top of my list to go check out. I want to add in "Splash Math" - it's aligned with Engage NY/Common Core and my students are loving it. Thanks again, Jen :)
