Our Favourite Apps



The children in Year 3W have been using the iPod touches in their numeracy groups. They all have different opinions about their favourite Apps. 


Serge liked Shape Lite because you got to make all different 2-D shapes. It was amazing to see what objects could be made by using all the shapes. Rebecca liked Shape Lite because it made a funny sound when you finished the puzzle.

Angus, Kayla and Flynn really liked Pop Maths. Kayla liked Pop Maths because she got up to level 54. Angus found it a challenge and it helped him with his sums and Flynn said it helped him learn.

Dante liked Clockmaster because this app helped him to learn o'clock, half past and quarter past and quarter to the hour.

Lara liked Apples because it was another app that helped the children learn how to tell the time.

Sums was Ella's favourite app because it helped me with my sums. I had to be really careful to write the numbers correctly or else it would be marked wrong.

Lara K liked Comp Carl because it was lots of fun because you had to drag the robot to the battery and you had to get the answers to the sums correct first.

We are looking forward to trying out some new apps this week. We have found the apps challenging, fun, interesting and we have learned many new things.

  1. Thank you for showing us the apps you have done in your class. Hannah is really interested in trying the app that Kayla liked. Finn wants to try the app where you have to drag the robot to the battery. Joshua really wants to try the app that Angus liked and Lucy liked the look of the app that Lara K likes. We all enjoyed reading your post and it has made us all very interested in finding out more about all of the apps you mentioned.
