There's an App for That!

A parent asked me the other day what would her child do with an electronic device in my class. I usually let students bring electronic devices to use when they are done with their work. However, I like to use devices as something that challenges students, instead of playing. Unfortunately, I cannot download apps to your child's device. I did find many apps that you can download at home for your child to bring to class. Some are not free #boo.

Math
Brainz: math app that shows different equations with different difficulties. There are challenges that are for primary students all the way up to high school.

Kakooma: helps students build number sense, fluency, and computation in an interactive way. Mrs. Jensby's favorite!

The OSMO is an interactive device I bought for my classroom. There are 5 different games that students can play. It was something worth buying to see how much they enjoy working on it. Watch this video to see what it is all about.
