Learn on the go with these teacher-approved apps! Read on for a brief description of each and which formats support them.
Sushi Monster
Math
Students have a target number that they have to make. This app enables kids to practice their math facts a different way. Instead of drilling 4 + 8, they focus on different ways to make 12. It can be challenging at first, but a lot of fun once you get the hang of it! I will admit to really getting into this a time or two.
Math Bingo
Math
This app lets students practice their math facts in a Bingo game. I like how you can choose the operation and the level of difficulty and the graphics are very kid friendly and fun.
iOS & Android
iOS
Counting Money
Math
I love this app because it is simple, yet very effective for memorizing and recognizing coins and their value. There are two game play types, practice and quiz. There are also two difficulty types, beginner and normal. You use four coin buttons to add to the tally and it has fun sounds as you count the money.
iOS
Phonics Genius
Phonics & Reading
This app covers tons of phonics patterns (over 200)! It's organized by pattern so you can target exactly what your child needs. Once you select a phonics pattern it shows a word that has that pattern highlighted and reads the word to you. When you click on the word it goes to the next word. There is also an option for students to record themselves reading the word. You can even mark words as "favorites" if you want students to review multiple patterns.
iOS
Cursive Writing HD
Handwriting
Students often get tired of constantly practicing their cursive letters but still need additional exposure. It provides not only letter by letter but 234 words, which show the users how individual(lower and upper case) letters are combined into words and sentences. You can also type any sentences and trace them. Let the silly sentences and fun tracing begin!
