Anything by Squeebles - several basic maths apps and a spelling one too. www.keystagefun.co.uk/maths-games.html The reward games are very popular.

"Meteor Math" is fun for the more able - it gets very fast and you can either choose + / x or -, or go for a mixture.

Teacher's pet have their new app - "What Time is it Mr Wolf" which is a nice time telling one. It's an app and free online too: tpet.co.uk/mrwolf/playfree.html?ref=appspage
