Just a heads up, this is the week for Early Childhood apps, but not much going on for middle/high school.
Appy Friday!

Early Childhood
Ask Me Colors and Shapes Preschool and Kindergarten Core Skills Preparation by Eggroll Games LLC
Normally $3.99
*Also available on Android! (see link at the end of this email)
If your student likes Brown Bear, Brown Bear and learns with music, this is a great app. I like that it works matching/identification of colors and shapes with jazzy background music. Matching/Indentification is from a field of three to six. It's errorless, if you tap the wrong thing, it just drops out of the line up. Even though it's errorless, I still wish it took data. Occupational Therapists can work on finger isolation and visual discrimination.
Elementary
Mathsplat - Alien Addition by Justin Hughes (ages 6-8)
Normally $1.99
As you solve one to two digit addition problems with a number line, you are rewarded with getting slimed by an alien and winning parts to your rocket for a rocket game. I like the number line a lot, it's easy to use and make sense. There are teacher settings that allows you to customize what the student is working on. Even if you want to use the app right away, I recommend opening the settings and removing the ads. The kid who is reading the problems is British, so some students may find it hard to understand the voice.
Middle-High School
Statistics Pro by Larry Feldman
Normally $0.99
*Also available on Android, but not free today
Okay, I'm not running around doing binomial distributions all day, so I can't really tell you if this app is really amazing or not. However, based on what I messed around with in a few minutes, I thought it was simple app to use. Just pop in some numbers and tap "analyze"! Some of the functions have examples to help you figure out if you are doing the right thing.
Always free, Always Awesome
SchoolKit Math by Scott Glickman (ages 6-8)
Going with the math theme (and also I suggested it today in a meeting), I wanted to share Schookit Math. It is not an app with problems to solve, but a manipulative app that you use alongside your math activities. This is great for students who need manipulatives regularly or have fine motor difficulties that prevent them from using traditional objects. It includes 24 different tools (examples: fraction kit, number line, bar graph, clocks). You create a homepage with up to 10 tools on it is easy for students to find what they need.
