I am looking forward to hearing what the kids think of these Playground apps: which are their favourites and why.ĭo you know of other wonderful Problem Solving apps? Here are the apps we have in our Playground folders: I love the name Playground and the connection it made to the Math Playground that our district offers, so I changed the name of our Problem Solving folders to Playground folders. These Problem Solving apps are in folders on their iPads, titled, Playground. There were some that were new to me which I was excited to be introduced to (and vice-versa, I think). So, before our meeting, in our discussions about apps, one of the teachers told us about a couple of the folders on their school iPads that relate to Problem Solving. Before our meeting began, a few of use talked with a teacher about some of the apps their school has on their iPads. It’s always great to have our meetings in the schools, instead of in a restaurant, because then we get to see what is actually happening in other schools. Last week, we had our Administrator Study Group meeting at a colleagues school.

Our district calls this resource Math Playground. All students can be successful and challenged at the same time with this engaging resource. It also has many different levels for each activity. It is wonderfully organized and self-contained. It consists of a couple of rolling 8-drawer storage bins filled with various problem-solving activities for students to complete. Our school district has a wonderful Math Problem Solving resource which teachers are encouraged to sign out for their schools.
