Tech :: 5 Google Apps that Help with Homework
Is it a daily struggle to have your kids work on their homework ? Sometimes I am amazed at how much homework my daughter has at such a young age. I don’t remember having that much homework until junior high. But there are tools that can help you get and keep your kids motivated and excited about learning. I think that is key – to have them look at their homework as less of a chore and focus on all the cool things they are learning about their world!
Google Play is here to help! Google Play just launched a new collection of free back to school-themed apps and below are five apps as an example of what’s included:

We use Duolingo, but I have not heard of the other four apps! We will check them out! Thanks for sharing!
I will also send this link onto our son’s fourth grade teacher who is using tech in class. Kids have the option to bring in devices for educational stuff. Fun times occurring in today’s modern world! Jenn

I would love to download DuoLingo. My nieces are at an age where they can really learn multiple languages easily, and I would benefit from this as well.
Erin McKain
Duolingo for the twins and Cozi for me to organize everyone!!

I’d enjoy DuoLingo while I think my husband would like Ted Talks, but we probably need the Cozi app most to help us stay organized.
