Independent Math Apps for the Classroom

I am always on the hunt for new apps to use for class, and I'm particularly happy when I find something for math that is simple and effective.



       

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.



Skill: Addition with fixed sum (ie. friends of 10) Choose the sum on the settings page, then simply tap the two numbers that add up to that total. Keep going until all the numbers are gone, then check progress.




Name: Math Bingo
Skill: Basic facts practice; students win a cute big for each correct answer until they make five in a row. We play this as a whole class and they LOVE it!



Skill: Basic fractions practice; simple enough for independent practice.



Name: Geoboards
Skill: Geometric Shapes with virtual elastics



Name: Number Pieces 
Skill: Place Value; count them up, use to solve addition and subtraction problems.

Name: Hungry Fish  
Skill: Basic Facts practice; direct the fish around the eat the correct numbers.




Name: Math Regrouping  
Skill: Basic addition and subtraction with the ability to write on the screen and choose multiple choice answers at the bottom.



Skill: Using a 100's chart to solve various tasks, such as filling in the missing number tiles, highlighting odd or even, making number patterns, etc.




Skill: Exploring symmetrical pictures



Name: Math Shaker
Skill: Basic Addition; solve to win pieces of the puzzle to build the pictures.



I hope your students enjoy these new apps!

  1. Thank you so much for this list!
    The 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 :)
