Name: Math Sprint
Cost: Free
Pros: This app is a great way for students to practice their math skills individually. Students are able to keep track of their achievements and set new goals as the year progresses. This app covers multiple different math concepts, such as, addition, subtraction, time, measurement, and many more. After finishing a timed math sprint, the students are given in their skill level for that math concept my measuring the accuracy, time, and score. A medal is also given as rewards. The students are able to work at an individual pace and email or the share their scores.
Cons: A few of the math concepts that are practiced, such as measurement, may be hard for students to understand because finding the exact measurement with the given ruler may be difficult and take up more time.
How I would use this in education: I can see me using this app I the classroom in multiple ways. This would be a great review day activity as the students finish each chapter. I eleven that this app would also be great to serve as an effective activity to do during "free time" in the classroom. The students can all be on their own pace and the app will keep track of the improvement in each math activity that is practiced.
