Apps for ADHD
Do you have some attention deficit students in your classroom? Here are some highly recommended apps for the ADHD student:
- Math Ninja - Many students with ADHD find Math challenging because it requires a large amount of time, effort, memorizing, etc. Math Ninja is a gaming app that makes math fun for students while helping them practice various math activities. It’s a full game, too, so every correct answer makes students earn more weapons to fight against the Tomato-San villain and his robots.

- Due — super fast reminders, reusable egg timers - No login, no sign-ups, just a simple app to set-up reminders with alerts set up in mere seconds.
- Unstuck - Sometimes ADHD minds can feel overwhelmed by tasks or just not in the mood to do them. Unstuck is a great app for moments like these, because it uses cognitive behavioral principles to help your students get unstuck!
- iReward Chart - Students with ADHD respond much better to rewards for good behavior rather than punishment for bad behavior. iReward Chart that allows teachers to monitor a student’s behavior on the app and then reward them with stars - and real-life rewards - when they achieve a task.
