10 Teacher-Recommended Math Apps and Online Tools

Whether you teach online or in person this fall, these digital math tools may come in handy for grades pre-K through 12.

For some math teachers, digital tools that help students visualize math concepts like Desmos or websites that encourage mathematical discussion like Fraction Talks were already a part of their repertoire before the pandemic. But for other teachers, remote learning pushed them to explore math apps and online resources for the first time.

We spoke to hundreds of educators and sifted through more than 500 comments to hear about what math tools they found helpful and unhelpful during remote learning this spring, and which are making the cut to use in the new school year.

Math Skills Practice

A number of math apps and online tools can help students develop the necessary foundational understanding of arithmetic operations they’ll need as a baseline for more challenging math problems later on, math teachers told us.

To help younger students practice skills like counting, addition, and subtraction, Ashley Blackwelder, an elementary STEAM coordinator in South Carolina, highly recommends Moose Math , a free app for iPhones and iPads. In Moose Math, students play math games that earn them points to help build a town. Blackwelder says the format is easy for kids to navigate and great for short attention spans.

Curriculum and instructional designer Cassie Tabrizi recommended Happy Numbers (pre-K–grade 5), a subscription-based website ($14.50 per student or $1,450 per site for first-time schools) that breaks down mathematical equations to help students build understanding of higher-order math concepts. To use it, students transform into a dinosaur character and solve math problems to hatch dinosaur eggs. Tabrizi said that the website is helpful, but she recommends using it in moderation: It can feel tedious for students if they practice longer than 10 minutes a day.

Students fight monsters in the persona of a wizard in Prodigy (grades 1–8), a free game-based website (also available as an app for iPhone, iPad, iPod Touch, and Android). Prodigy is loved by kids, but less so by educators because it is more play based. Brittney Paige, a fifth-grade teacher in Seattle, says that even though it is more of a game, she likes that it automatically targets math concepts that students struggled with in its preassessment and tracks how much progress they make on target areas. Most teachers offer Prodigy as an option for students if they finish an assignment early.

Zearn (grades 1–5), a free, self-paced, web-based program aligned with Eureka Math—a free pre-K through 12 math curriculum—starts a typical lesson with fun warm-up activities, like adding up how many apples a cartoon fox eats, to engage students. As they work through the program, students complete timed arithmetic problems, watch instructional videos on new concepts, and solve practice problems. Shannon McGrath, an instructional coach in Western Springs, Illinois, says that Zearn is good “high-level, conceptual practice” and gives good feedback for both teachers and students, but can sometimes progress too slowly for kids who master concepts quickly.

Open Math Tasks

Open math tasks—problems that typically have more than one answer—help students develop a conceptual understanding of math rather than get hung up on memorizing facts, said math educators we talked to, who consistently mentioned three free websites to use for open math tasks.

Open Middle (pre-K–grade 12) leaves parts of an equation blank and asks students to fill them in to make it true. “I love Open Middle for remote learning, especially paired with a Google Jamboard ,” says McGrath. “The problems inspire inquiry thinking, gamelike play, creativity, and perseverance.”

McGrath also likes Would You Rather Math (pre-K–grade 12) for community building. When using the site, students choose between two real-life examples—like a box of chocolates with five rows and 14 columns or a box of chocolates with seven rows and nine columns—and have to make a mathematical argument to validate their choice.

Which One Doesn’t Belong? (pre-K–grade 12), a similar site, showcases four shapes, numbers, or graphs and asks students to describe which one doesn’t belong, using math vocabulary. “This is great for opening a synchronous discussion, as it is considered a low-floor, high-ceiling task,” says Joseph Manfre, a math specialist for the Hawaii Department of Education. High school math teacher Mary Bourassa has her calculus students identify reasons why each graph in a set of four doesn't belong by indicating graph characteristics like asymptotes and non-differentiable points, and later has her students create their own WODB sets.

Rich Math Tasks

For rich math tasks—tasks that lend themselves to rigor, collaboration, and conceptual thinking—math educators noted a couple of websites.

Fraction Talks (grades 1–12) is a website filled with images of shapes—triangles within triangles, for example—that encourages math discussions. Simply asking students, “What do you observe?” can prompt them to share what and how many shapes they notice, while asking “How many shapes are red or shaded?” encourages students to explore and understand fractions. Once students have a basic understanding of fractions, they can start to explore more complex concepts. By prompting students to look at subsections of a shape—and what fractions they created when combined— Bryan Penfound helped his seventh- and eighth-grade students to visualize adding and multiplying fractions .

Simulation Tools

According to math teachers, simulations, like manipulating an expression and seeing a change in a graph, are great tools to help students visualize math concepts.

Applets—a simple code with a specific objective—were mentioned by a few teachers as a good resource. Emma Chiappetta's statistics students use applets from RossmanChance.com to manipulate and identify sampling distribution patterns in graphs, for example. She creates a basic guide on how to use the applet with which values to change, and then asks questions to get students thinking critically about those patterns. Chiappetta also uses applets from the Massachusetts Institute of Technology for her linear algebra students.

Desmos (grades 6–12), a website with interactive math activities and a graphing calculator (also available as an app on iPhone, iPad, iPod Touch, and Android), is another free tool and a favorite among teachers, we heard. While social and emotional learning (SEL) and math may not seem to go hand in hand, teachers integrated SEL into math lessons using Desmos. In the first week of distance learning, Ashley Taplin, a secondary math specialist in San Antonio, Texas, had her students graph how they were feeling , for example. Taplin says she particularly loves that teachers can make their own activities—like this one about parabolas and this card sort , where students match cards with the name, corresponding equation, and correct graphical representation of a function.

Student-Centered Math Lessons

Engaging Websites for Middle School Math

Students love technology, so why not use it as often as possible to engage students in the best subject in the world, math? It can be used as a regular means of daily practice, as an incentive, and as a way to track data easier than pen and paper. Here are some of the websites for middle school math that I have used or plan to use in my classroom.

ENgAGING WEBSITES FOR MIDDLE SCHOOL MATH

1. khan academy  .

If you have read this blog for any length of time, you know that I use Khan Academy frequently  and to differentiate . I have compiled a list of tips and tricks here .

Khan Academy covers all math topics in all grades with videos, practice, and formative assessments. Students can earn badges — #middleschoolwin. Not only that, but you can also assign specific skills to specific students, so all students can be working on something different at the same time — #differentiationwin. (All Khan Academy content is available for free at www.khanacademy.org .)

Not Free – $1000 per classroom annually

Zeal is a website that my students got a free trial in this year. The price tag is pretty steep, but we used it for our highest need students weeks prior to our state assessment.

Here is how it works: A student takes a pretest. The website decides what skills need the most practice. As students work on problems, Zeal tracks their progress. If a student continues to make the same mistake or miss a few problems in a row, a real-person tutor pops up and begins to explain the problem to the student. They use a screen share tool, and the tutor will write the work on the screen. The tutors will ask students questions. You will need a computer that has its microphone enabled, and they will need to wear ear buds.

Using Zeal is like having a ratio of 1:1 in the classroom. If your school has a large budget, this would be perfect for an intervention class.

3. Kahoot  

Kahoot is my students’ absolute favorite website to use in our classroom! I even get excited playing it! Here is how it works: as a teacher, you can create your own multiple choice questions or choose from searchable public quizzes to use. Your students will use the code to log in to a quiz. The question projects on the whiteboard, and students choose an answer on their own device. After the answer is revealed, Kahoot ranks students according to their accuracy and the speed with which they answered. On their own devices, Kahoot will tell them their ranking, and on the whiteboard, it will show a leaderboard with the top five students.

Students love making it to the leaderboard and seeing where they are ranked. The only pitfall is that students will make mistakes since they are trying to answer fast. I repeat that accuracy is more important than speed.

Update: You can now assign Kahoots as homework assignments!

Quizizz syncs with Google Classroom, so if you are familiar with Google Classroom, then you should definitely try Quizizz . If you don’t use Google Classroom , then Quizizz is still a great resource. Ms. Henry, the 5th grade teacher at my school, used Quizizz for her students who had passed the state assessment in the first round so they could practice 6th grade topics. While students who passed worked on Quizizz , she instructed a small group of students who were preparing for the second round of the state assessment.

Similar to Kahoot, teachers can create their own quizzes or choose from already created quizzes and students are ranked after each question. Here is what makes it different: memes! As a teacher, you can choose from a bank of memes to flash after students complete each question. Try a demo game by clicking here .

5.  Xtra math

This is a website that allows a few minutes of math fluency practice. One of our readers, Pamela, shared that she uses it for 5-7 minutes each day in her intervention class. She rewards the student who has completed the most problems correctly and uses it as a fun way to practice number sense and operations, while providing incentives.

6. Slides Q&A

Google Slides now has a feature that allows audience participation. According to Google’s blog , “With a simple link displayed on a Slides presentation, audience members can submit questions from their phones, laptops, and tablets — and vote on those they want answered the most.” I have not used this as a presenter, but I have used this as an audience member in PD. As someone who rarely asks questions, this feature  allowed me to participate with less reservation. I imagine this would be helpful for shy students, too!

7. Cardstock Translation

Free trial + cost for additional use.

I have not used this personally yet. My school is adopting it next year, and I am thrilled. This website allows you to communicate with parents in an organized fashion. Cardstock keeps track of all communication between parent and teacher. It sends the messages straight to the parents’ phones via text so they do not have to download any special app. The best feature is that if you teach at a school where many families speak another language, Cardstock will translate your outgoing and incoming messages. This is going to change my life next school year!

Update: After using Cardstock for two years, I am not sure I could teach without it!

8. Google Forms + Flubaroo

Have you tried any of these websites for middle school math in your classroom? What websites do you enjoy using in your class and would recommend to others?

I haven’t used it, but some of my teammates used Zip Grade. It uses the phone to grade bubble sheets.

August 22, 2017 at 1:17 pm

Yes, love zip grade!

September 27, 2017 at 7:22 pm

Hi! I wanted to ask you about Zeal- it sounds really intriguing. Did you feel like it was worth it or helpful for your students? Were there reasons (outside of the price) that you didn’t continue to use it (or did you?)? It sounds like it could be really helpful, but since they are a newer company, I want to do a bit more research on them and talk to people that have used it before I use it on my kids! Thanks for any feedback you have!

The Internet has provided parents and students with an avenue to get extra help with a variety of topics. Interactive math websites provide students with extra assistance in virtually every math concept and do so in a manner that is both fun and educational. Here, we explore five interactive math websites that cover several key math concepts applicable across several grade levels.

One of the most popular math websites on the web. Advertised as:

"An amusement park of math and more.....Lessons and games designed for fun for ages 13-100!"

This site is primarily dedicated to higher-level math skills and offers math lessons, math practice, a math dictionary, and a geometry/trig reference. Cool Math does offer a large variety of interactive games each attached to a specific math skill. Students will learn those skills and enjoy themselves at the same time. Cool Math also has additional networks such as CoolMath4Kids designed for kids ages 3-12. Cool Math also provides resources for parents and teachers.

Create A Graph

This is a terrific interactive graphing website for students of all ages. It is very user-friendly and allows students to custom build their graphs . There are five types of graphs to build including a bar graph, line graph, area graph, pie graph, and XY graph. Once you select the type of graph, then you can begin by your customization in the design tab or you can begin entering your data by clicking on the data tab. There is also a label tab that allows for further customization. Finally, you can preview and print your graph when you have completed it. The website does offer a tutorial for new users as well as templates that you can use to build your graph.

Manga High Math

Manga High Math is a fantastic interactive math website consisting of 18 math games covering a variety of math topics across all grade levels. Users have limited access to all games, but teachers may register their school, allowing their students full access to all games. Each game is built around a particular skill or related skills. For example, the game "Ice Ice Maybe”, covers percentages , addition, subtraction, multiplication, and division.

22 Helpful Math Websites for Kids and Teachers with a Free Downloadable List

Written by Marcus Guido

• Teaching Strategies
• Teaching Tools

Finding educational and helpful math websites for kids used to be a challenge for teachers. Now, the problem is finding the best ones.

That’s because — although many websites have online math games,  interactive activities  and resources such as worksheets and tutorials — they vary in quality and usability.

We did our research and found the best resources to teach math concepts, problem solving and critical thinking for pre-K and up.

Along with a condensed list for download at the end of this list, here are 15 helpful and mostly-free math websites for teachers and five you can share with students.

1. Prodigy Math

Try Prodigy Math — the engaging, curriculum-aligned math platform loved by over 100 million students, teachers and admins.

The math game is aligned with curricula for grades 1 to 8. You can customize in-game content to  reinforce and supplement your lesson plans .

But Prodigy will also automatically  differentiate  to address each student’s trouble spots while learning math at their own pace. Plus, it accommodates  diverse learning styles  by presenting questions through  words, images and graphs  as well as numbers.

To inform in-class lessons, you can access reports to examine player progress and issues.

Consider joining  TES  if you haven’t already — it’s the largest online teaching community, at more than 7 million users.

TES provides access to resources such as worksheets and report templates, submitted and rated by educators. As well as those standard materials, the website compiles blog posts that share useful tips. These include lesson ideas and niche topics, such as teaching math to students with different skill levels. You should find the website easy to navigate, too. Resources are divided by grade level and trending searches appear on the homepage.

3. TeacherVision

Load  TeacherVision’s math page  to access resources that, among other uses, connect math with other subjects.

These include art, history and geography. For example, you can download an activity for grades 3 to 5 that applies long division and multiplication to the Great Wall of China. The resources target students from kindergarten to grade 12, including printable rulers and measurement conversion tables. You can pair them with TeacherVision’s lesson plans, but you must be a registered user to access them.

4. TeacherTube

Think of  TeacherTube  as an education-only version of YouTube, covering core school subjects.

You can search for a specific topic or browse by category. Quickly, you’ll find videos to use during the core parts of a lesson or as a learning station. For example, searching for “middle school algebra” will load a results page containing study guides, specific lessons and exam reviews. You can also direct students and parents to TeacherTube, as some videos are targeted to them.

Register with  Math TV   to view videos that explore, step-by-step, how to solve a range of equations.

After introducing a concept, you can supplement your lessons by playing videos that cover relevant example problems. For example, selecting “Rates and Unit Pricing” will display questions that vary in difficulty. Whereas one requires basic division, another involves converting measurements through multiplication. As Math TV started as a textbook, you can register for the videos by purchasing one.

6. National Library of Virtual Manipulatives

Visit the  National Library of Virtual Manipulatives  to access a range of online activities for students, each involving digital objects such as coins and blocks.

Created by Utah State University, the online library’s goal is purely to engage students. Specifically, it’s to help teachers provide students with more activities. The library contains manipulation tasks targeted to students from pre-kindergarten to grade 12. For example, a grade 6 geometry activity involves using geoboards to illustrate area, perimeter and rational number concepts.

7. SuperKids

Use  SuperKids  to create custom worksheets, allowing you to effectively preview, review and supplement your lessons.

The creation process isn’t complicated. The website lists skills, such as telling time and the order of operations. After selecting one, you can set the lowest and highest numbers to appear in the questions, as well as the number of questions on the worksheet. It takes a click to generate an accompanying answer sheet.

8. Math Goodies

Try  Math Goodies  for interactive tasks and lessons.

Students can, for example, read an example-filled walkthrough about how to order decimals. At the end of the walkthrough, they’ll be able to complete exercises to test how well they processed the content. Math Goodies also appeals to diverse learners by featuring free puzzles, articles and  word problems  to complement the lessons. You can use the website to create custom worksheets, too.

9. Math-Aids

Use  Math-Aids  as an alternative to SuperKids, accessing free worksheets to use in class or give as homework.

Focusing on almost 100 topics, there are 1,200 unique worksheets. Although the customization options aren’t as robust as SuperKids’, there are more skills appropriate for higher grade levels. For example, there are worksheets dealing with Pythagorean theorem. You can also generate word games and  problems , helping accommodate diverse learning styles.

10. Khan Academy

Search the math section of  Khan Academy  to access free practice resources and video lessons.  

You can browse the website’s content by grade and subject, quickly finding material to supplement in-class instruction. For example, there are articles you can share or print to review skills before tests. These skills are rooted in algebra, geometry, statistics and other topics. In total, the online academy has more than 20,000 closed-captioned videos and material covering more than 5,000 topics.

Help your students finally love math!

Get free access to adaptive learning, differentiated assessments and more — all in a safe, game-based learning environment.

11. Wolfram MathWorld

Visit  Wolfram MathWorld  for nearly 13,000 resource entries — the product of almost a decade of assembly.

The website’s administrators upload new entries on a daily basis, adding to the library of problems, examples and definitions. Many of these resources are suited to high school students, whereas others form a knowledge base for educators to study and reference when needed. You can also download many of the resources for offline use.

Access almost 900 math and science lesson plans dating back to 1997 through  SMILE  (Science and Mathematics Initiative for Learning Enhancement).

The website clearly looks like it’s from the 1990s, but stopped uploading content in 2006. Regardless, you can access relevant lessons from teachers across the United States. They range from elementary to high school content, and each states the objective and strategy you should take when teaching it. For these reasons, SMILE is still an ideal resource for finding lesson ideas.

13. Online Chart Tool

Target visual learners by creating charts using  this online tool , embedding them in worksheets, presentations and other material.

To streamline the process of creating charts, the website takes you through steps to input data, adjust labels and modify your design. You can upload a CSV file with your data to further speed up the process. Currently, the tool allows you to create common charts — such as line graphs — and uncommon ones, such as radar charts.

14. Daily Starters

Visit Scholastic’s  Daily Starters page  each day to help you create entry tickets for solo or group work.

The content levels range from pre-kindergarten to grade 8. They generally include math and English questions, as well as facts related to other subjects. Many teachers either print the Daily Starters or project them onto a whiteboard. Aside from entry tickets, there different ways to use them in lessons — such as including them in learning stations.

15. Get the Math

Check out  Get the Math  with your students to teach them about applying math in different careers and real-world situations.

Aimed at middle school and high school students, the website features videos with young professionals who explain how they use algebra. They then pose job-related challenges to two teams of students in the video. Encouraging your class to take the challenges will expose them to the same algebraic concepts. It’s a straightforward way to vary your lesson content.  

7 Helpful math websites for kids

In addition to the math resources above, we recommend checking out these other high-quality learning resources to help students gain a better understanding of challenging math topics.

Students can use these to dive deeper into basic math concepts like addition, subtraction, long division and much more.

Direct students to  NRICH , an ongoing project by the University of Cambridge, for  math games , articles and problems.

The site divides resources by UK key stages and US grade levels, sharing content that’s explicitly linked to standard curricula content. For example, grade 3 students can find information related to telling time and complete subsequent equations. Students can also take advantage of the “Ask NRICH” feature — they submit questions, and a mathematician will help solve them.

2. WolframAlpha Math

Share  WolframAlpha Math  with students in higher grades, as the tool acts like a scientific calculator that shows each step to solving a given equation.

When applicable, it will provide answers using graphs, images and written explanations. Keep in mind, there is currently no functionality to input your own equations. So, students cannot use WolframAlpha Math to solve specific questions. But you can take equations from the website to solve in class, using it to review answers.

3. AAA Math

Tell students up to grade 8 about  AAA Math  if they want an online math practice resource.

No form of registration is required, letting students easily access math questions ranging from counting to evaluating exponents of negative numbers.

The math site gives immediate feedback, letting students know if they answered correctly or incorrectly. In the latter case, it will reveal the right answer. As well as math problems, there are word- and graph-based questions.

4. Math Is Fun

Engage students in elementary and middle school by directing them to  Math Is Fun .

Throughout the website, there are concise sentences and cartoon characters, making content easier for young students to process. In addition to providing exercises that cover essential math skills, there are games and puzzles. Math Is Fun may also appeal to teachers, as it has a section of lesson ideas.

5. Math Open Reference

Think of  Math Open Reference  as a less-developed version of Wolfram MathWorld, filled with examples and explanations suited to younger students.

For example, visitors can access a page about angle measurement. It covers topics such as degrees, radians and minutes while featuring an interactive protractor tool. Further down, the page covers related topics and common questions. Math Open Reference also has tools such as graphing and scientific calculators.

6. PBS Kids

Build kids number sense while they have fun with a variety of different math games, all available online.

This math website made by PBS includes many games that feature characters from kids' favorite TV shows, including Sesame Street. Consider pairing this with an activity like Prodigy for some homeschool or at-home learning.

7. Funbrain

This website includes many fun math games for kids, as well as other resources like math videos and reading games.

Funbrain also has its own virtual math playground, where kids can practice math facts and skills through short mini-games. Consider using this math website as a brain break or as a way to help kids left off some steam while polishing up their math skills.
