    I am always on the hunt for new math apps to use for class, and I’m particularly happy when I find some that are simple and effective.
    List of great math apps for the primary classroom
     
    I attended a professional development session about math apps, and I’ve collected the most popular ones  for primary classrooms.  These were recommended for K-2 classrooms, and they are between $0-$5.

    Domino Math Center

    If you need some hands on practice, you can download a copy of Domino Centers for free!

    For a fun no-prep math center, download this copy of Domino Sorting! Students add the dots on the dominos, and then place them in the spot with the correct answer. If you prefer, make the task more difficult by requiring students to write the equation for each domino right on to the math as well. Great for accountability and quick assessment.

    Don’t have any dominos? I’ve included a paper set to copy and cut out!

    Just click the blue button below to download a copy!

      Thank you so much for this list!
      The Math Tappers, Number Pieces, and Hungry Fish are at the top of my list to go check out. I want to add in "Splash Math" – it's aligned with Engage NY/Common Core and my students are loving it. Thanks again, Jen 🙂
