Math+apps

- > This app is great for students who struggle with their times tables. It is a game format for drilling the times table. This is also a free app. > > **ElevatedMath** > This is a neat app, but it can really start to cost you money to be able to use it to its full potential. There are only a few things that are actually free about the app. Originally the app is free, but you have to pay to use some of the other features of the app. My favorite part of this app is the career videos. The free video that comes with this app shows why even a musician needs to understand fractions. To purchase other videos that are available through this app it will cost you $1.99 per video. Overall I see this app being very useful to me. > This is a cool app that mixes up addition, subtraction,multiplication, and division. You have to use your math skills to defend your tree house from the Tomato and his robot army. It will have the students wanting to practice their math skills! Best part about this app is that it is free! > > __**Middle School Math**__ > This application allows students to practice ordering fractions, decimal numbers and integers. Students can create surveys and then generate graphs from the data. The can plot coordinates on a plane, practice place value, and practice solving one and two digit equations. I especially liked the one and two digit equation section because students needed to identify what they did to each side of the equation rather than just solve the equation. This app would be very useful both in my 7th and 8th grade math class. > > __**Number Line**__ > While this app isn't as "flashy" as some, it has students practice ordering fractions, decimals, and percents on a number line. It gives immediate feedback and helps students visual the number line as they compare these types of numbers. Again, it is something students do in our math series, and would be a good introduction and then a good review as we work through these types of problems. > > __**Pearl Diver**__ > At first glance this game seems very simple - you line up your diver with a simple number line and dive for pearls. However, as you successfully complete each level the number line gets more complicated. Negative numbers are added in, as are fractions. In the highest levels students need to convert improper fractions to be able to place the diver in the correct place on the number line. I found myself being drawn into this one - and even though it might seem easy, students do need to use their knowledge of fractions, negative numbers, measurement (you make sushi and cut an eel in one part of this game) to succeed to the highest level. >
