Week 6: My Favorite Apps for Kindergarten

Below I will list my favorite apps for Kindergarten students. 

1. Sight Words- This app is just what the name implies it is an app that allows students to review sight words on the go.  The student has a chance to guess the word and if they do not know it, all they have to do is tap on the word to hear it.  I love this as a quick app on the go.

2. Phonics Genius-  This is an interactive app that allows students to practice phonics.  This app also have a neat feature that allows students to record themselves saying the word and then a playback feature.  

3. Little Writer- This app is neat because it allows students to practice their writing skills. This app is fun for students because they think they are playing a game instead of practicing writing. This app is really easy for students to use and another plus is you can personalize it. 

4.  Math Bug- This is an app that help students practice counting and their addition and subtraction skills.  Students can start out with easy addition and subtraction and then advance to double digits.


These are four apps that I like to use with my students and my child.  One plus about them all is they are free. I hope you can enjoy these as much as I have.
