Name that Number

For a math-minded kid, this app could be fun. For others, a bit frustrating. You are given 5 numbers plus the operation symbols (+-x/) and need to use them to make an expression that “names the target number.” It could be as simple as choosing 16-5=11, or more complicated like 12-6×2+6=6. There is no teaching, only practice. Reminds us a little of Scrabble in the way your mind has to work.

Skills: math operations
Cost: $1.99
Platform: iPhone, iPod Touch, iPad
Grade(s): 2nd grade, 3rd grade, 4th grade
