Maths apps
Kia ora whanau, Students get very excited about Maths apps.
Here are some Maths apps from Allanah King. https://sites.google.com/site/initialipadsetup/maths
It is vital that we plan and set up these apps based on the learning needs of our students.
What others apps have you found useful for number or other strands? How do you implement these in your classroom?

Hi Everyone
Are these apps only for Ipads? are there versions avialable for Samsung tablets?

Hi Mini, These apps are I pad apps, but you might find different versions on Samsung (Android apps)

Needing a little something to spice up your maths programme in the last few weeks of term?
Here from my scoop.it feed this morning is a list of 50 Math Web Games for Young Kids in a neat symbaloo presentation where the students click the link to take them to the maths games.

Thanks Catriona. These are great games especially reinforcing the concepts of pattern, sorting and counting.

Hi, I thought those of you who use ipads or ipods in your classroom might also be interested in the apps mentioned on this site http://www.edutopia.org/blog/11-virtual-tools-math-classroom-monica-burns The Edutopia website has a lot of marvellous material and thought provoking articles on all aspects of teaching and learning.

Thanks Christine. I have used 'number pieces' app for developing place value understanding and 'Educreations' app for students to record their explanation and writing. I will be exploring the other tools soon.

Here is another idea, not a maths game but a maths application for Minecraft.
On the VPLD community Justin Hickey has shared a Minecraft map made by a year 8 student from Awahono School.
"Each level of questions ties in with Number Knowledge Stages so could therefore be used as an assessment tool."

Here is another list of 10 must have free math apps.
Maths vs zombies totally appealed to the year 3/4 maths group I was working with.
