#10 Operation Math: Code Squad - This is an app for practicing getting faster with their facts. I like the theme of this app and the fact that it is designed to have up to four children playing the game at the same time on the same iPad. $2.99
#9 Tippy Tower - This game is a lot of fun. You have to place the pieces on top of each other to reach a certain height, but if your tower tips over you have to start again. Builds spatial reasoning in a fun way. FREE with paid upgrades
#8 Montessori Place Value - Love this app! It uses the Montessori Place Value Cards (which basically shows the number in expanded form). So kids select all the pieces to make the number and then pull them together to show the standard form of the number. $2.99
#7 Subitizing Apps - Subitizing is the ability to tell how many in a set without having to count. Children should instantly be able to recognize small quantities and all of these apps help them practice that concept. From dominoes to dot patterns to ten frames to the rekenrek to pictures of flowers, these apps help children create a visual picture to go along with the symbol for each number.
#6 Sums Stacker - Fun game to practice getting combinations that add up to a certain amount. I like the use of dice so that kids who need to could count the dots to help them determine totals. There are lots of options instead of using the dice, though. $1.99
#5 Numbers League - Not only is this app fun, but it builds some powerful math ideas. Kids build a team of superheroes and can use the “sum” of their powers to capture villains. $3.99
#4 Apps by Motion Math - All the apps developed by Motion Math have been wonderful. These are three that are geared more towards K-2 (however Zoom is also for 3-5). These apps also have paid upgrades if you want the full versions.
#3 Apps by Classroom Focused Software - All the apps developed by Classroom Focused Software are geared to address the number sense children need to develop in the early grades. The apps listed here are just a few of my favorites by them, but they actually have many more.
#2 Fast Facts Early Add and Fast Facts Addition - First thing to note is that there is an option at the end that you can email the very detailed report on how the child did on the activity and there is an option to just practice the “missed facts.” Second thing to note is this app uses 10 Frames starting with subitizing and then moving into addition. FREE but has paid upgrades
#1 Murky Reef 1st grade and 2nd grade - These two apps (1st grade & 2nd grade) have multiple concepts that they address. You can choose which one you want the kid to work on. You can enter multiple kids and keep track of their progress. $1.99 for each level
