IPADS & TCAP REVIEW

What time is it??? 'TTT', that's right triple 'T'...TCAP Time in Tennessee --- and I had the best day w/ TCAP review!

I was blessed with teaming up with math specialist, Lori Allen, and a GREAT group of teachers at Surgoinsville Elementary! We implemented the iPad's for TCAP review with students in 3rd grade. We focused on three apps for reviewing multiplication. The highlight was when a student, that struggles w/ the material, had a hard time w/ 1 app but completely grasped it w/ another app. He went from <20% accuracy to 91% --- I was so excited! This just proved to me how much the iPad can and does impact education...they do accomplish differentiation w/ the same material! Thank you Surgoinsville for asking us to team up with you for TCAP prep!

Our 3 App's, ranked in order of student preference :)
  1. Grand Prix Multiplication
  2. Rocket Math Free
  3. Mad Math Lite

Happy App'ing!
