Buffon's Needle Experiment (BNE) is a classic problem of geometric probability, where one drops a needle randomly onto a region of evenly spaced parallel lines. This app simulates a simple case where the needle's length is the distance between two adjacen
Free AppThis app provides a platform for students to play with the ideas of negative numbers, including both addition and subtraction. The primary assumption is that, for any positive number, such as 1, there is an inverse, -1, with respect to addition, so that..
Free AppSierpinski Triangles are fractals, which means part of the triangle is similar to the whole triangle. Typically, we would start with an equilateral triangle and find the midpoints of each side and then draw smaller triangles using the midpoints and its...
Free AppThe chase problem is truly a classic one in recreational mathematics and problem solving. It is sometimes called "curves of pursuit," offering various levels of mathematical exploration. There are numerous versions in the literature covering dogs, mice...
Free AppThe Tower of Hanoi is a classic math game or puzzle, allowing for a variety of mathematical explorations. At the minimum, one can try to figure out the smallest number of steps required to solve the puzzle and relate it to the very structure of the proble
Free AppLong division is among the most notorious topics in school mathematics. However, it is also one of the most fruitful topics that allow children to have fun with mathematical thinking, if it is explored in a meaningful way. It combines addition, subtractio
Free AppNewton's Cradle is an interesting toy that showcases the conservation of energy in a simple construction. The mathematics behind it is just as appealing. This app simulates the mathematical or geometrical nature of the balls' movements. It does NOT addres
Free AppDice are often used to teach about the ideas of probability and random events. This app has two options that allow users to explore the space of dice-based probabilities. In the probability distribution simulation, one can toss all dice, one at a time...
Free AppThis app is developed for young learners. They will learn how to describe or classify a triangle in terms of its angles and sides. They could have the app generate a random triangle or just drag the points around to make their own triangle. Then, they...
Free AppKoch Curves are fractals, meaning that part of the curve is similar to the whole curve. Typically, we would start with an equilateral triangle and find the mid third of each side and then draw a smaller equilateral triangle, leaving its base blank. The...
Free AppThis app shows the recursive nature of trees. By recursion, we typically mean that a part of an object is roughly similar to the whole object. Although trees are visually complex, they are mathematically simple. A big tree is simply a collection of small.
Free AppThe Four Numbers Problem is a well-known math game or puzzle, allowing for a rich exploration of several mathematical ideas. One starts with four numbers placed at the four vertices of a square (or any quadrilateral, if so desired). The distance (absolute
Free AppMathematics is, to a large extent, the study of patterns. Patterns can be visual, numeric, linguistic, rules, formulas, or trends of data. This little app is for teachers and young students in early math. It allows users to create dot patterns to express.
Free AppThe Early Number Sense with Dice App is a simple math game for children to develop basic number sense and an early sense of randomness. Every time the two dice are tossed, they will need to touch some balloons with numbers so that the numbers will add...
Free AppThe Next Generation Multiplication Table (NGMT) seeks to invite young learners to play with and further make sense of single-digit multiplications using primarily the area (array) model and the tree (splitting) model. It also explains the visual models...
Free AppA simple Touch Abacus aimed for the development of number sense in early math learning. The abacus has a long history in various cultures and is both concrete and abstract in some sense. This app provides the Chinese and Japanese versions. The Chinese...
