What is App a Day?

With i-touches, i-pads and i-phones becoming more popular, the apps are increasing in numbers too. With so many apps out there, how do you know what is good and what isn't. That is what I am hoping to help you with in this blog. If you have a suggestion of an app to share...please send me an email to jdief99@gmail.com.

After taking a year off with a new job...I have many apps to discuss. Follow me for at least 3 new apps at week.

MATH RACER


Here is a great app for practicing math facts. The students can choose which math operation they would like to practice and then the number of problems (10, 20, 50 or 100). You can have your students take turns practicing and it will keep track of the number correct with the amount of time it took them. The scores are stored by the student’s initials. The app did cost $3.99 so it is a more expensive app (if $4.00 is considered expensive!) but I have not found any problems with it.

Lemonade Tycoon

I have been playing this app for a long time on both my itouch and ipad. If you are a fan of the old Apple Lemonade Stand game...then this is for you. In this game, you start with a small lemonade cart. You need to make a recipe for lemonade, purchase the needed supplies and come up with a cost to charge. Once you have earned enough money, you can upgrade your stand, many items in your stand, you can rent a new location or even hire help. This app is free. They also have one for $1.99 but reviews said it is the same game.
