App Friday: July 13th

Welcome to App Friday, our weekly link exchange of family-friendly apps. The summer is in full swing, and so is this long list of apps. We have everything from textbooks, to storybooks, to hospital games, science and speech therapy. Browse the list to see what works best for you. To connect with the developers, don’t miss our live weekly gatherings on the App Friday Facebook Page. Enjoy!

Participating Apps

Clicking the links will take you to the app description, which has more information about each app. Parents and teachers, please preview the apps to understand the features before making it available in your home or classroom. Promotional pricing lasts until 8pm US PST Friday, unless extended by the developer.

What About Android?

Here are some featured apps that are also available for Android. The Android platforms (i.e., Nook, Amazon, Google Play) can have different price change mechanics than iOS, so not everything listed on Android is at sale price. This is a heads-up, in case you have phones or devices that support the Android platform.

These developers have taken the time to evaluate where their app relates to the Common Core framework. For more information on the community’s efforts around the Common Core State Standards, see this post.
