CCS Elementary - Math!


Give those Elementary math brains a Summer BOOST - check out these highly-rated math apps for your phone, iPad, and computer:

Marble Math Junior - Solve a variety of math problems by collecting numbers and bonuses as you navigate a marble maze.  With three difficulty levels and 16 marble styles, this app can be personalized to fit your kid's skills and personality.  It also lets parents customize games to concentrate on unfamiliar skills.  (Ages 5 and up; $3.99; iPhone, iPad)

Let's Do the Math - Keep kids busy for hours with 15 different types of exercises in three categories and 50 word problems that focus on addition and subtraction.  The app can be used either as flash cards or as a series of puzzles to teach basic concepts.  (Ages 6 and up; Free; Android)

Mystery Math Town - Zany characters and a mysterious (but not scary) story use fun and interactive graphics in a goal-based game that provides daily math practice.  Players use numeric fireflies to solve addition, subtraction, multiplication, and division problems.  (Ages 6 and up; $2.99; iPhone, iPad)

NRICH - K-12 math activities for advanced problem-solving skills that require mathematical thinking and reasoning.  Students may need adult guidance to find relevant activities, but encourage them to stick with it and "explore, question, notice, and discuss" before submitting their solutions.  Every problem includes links to get started and fully explained solutions.  (Ages 6 and up; Free; website)
