App Name: Math Evolve
Cost: $1.99
What does it promise? This app provides a fun and engaging way to practice math facts, number sense and mental math skills.
Does it deliver? Unlike other math apps and flashcards that can become boring, Math Evolve combines math practice with an arcade-style game. Beautiful artwork and high-quality music add to the overall enjoyment of the game.
The game’s Story Mode lets users set the difficulty of the math and the game independently, making Math Evolve fun and educational for players of all ages and abilities. The Player History section saves every player’s performance, showing teachers which math facts a child needs to practice.

Math Evolve offers a number of game levels and difficulty settings, which keep the game fresh and challenging.
Can I use it in my classroom? Math Evolve puts a different twist on traditional math lessons and is certainly worthy of inclusion in any elementary classroom.
