The downside to these math apps is that the kids don't have to go through the motion of writing out the problems and showing their work. But I figure if my kid is learning math, that's enough for extra math.

Beast academy is very challenging but great.

Apps didn’t work with my adhd kid because he would get distracted being online. I tried so many apps and programs.

Only paper and pencil drill worked. After trying a whole bunch of things I signed him up for kumon so he could get down his math facts and computational math skills down. I had him tested and he scored in the 88 th percentile fir math applications/word problems but only the 18th percentile rank for computation. I bribed him to do kumon math for about 18 months. It totally worked and knowing math facts and how to quickly and accurately do basic calculations frees up working memory to understand how to do word problems.

Dreambox!!

Does anyone have any apps that they use to help their ADHD kiddoes learn math--looking for something for my 9 year old to make math more interesting to her.
