8 of 17My 6-year-old enjoys the first few levels of this game and has played it many times. The later levels with fractions and negative numbers are pretty fun too. Definitely can see how it would help kids practice the number line.
Every time I dive it said I got a boot I only got the pearl one time you'll need to fix it.
This is a fun way for kids learning fractions and the number line to practice what they are learning. It's not a particularly deep game, if you'll pardon the pun, so if you're looking for an intense gaming experience, you're better off looking elsewhere. But if you're looking for a fun math-based diversion, or need to practice your number line and fraction ordering skills, this is just the ticket! Nice graphics, fun gameplay, and good production values.
This game is an excellent way to teach the concept of the number line! The levels gradually get more complex, allowing you to completely master the number line. The bonus games are fun, too! Overall, this game is a great educational tool that is really fun to play, as well.
This is a great idea, but execution is badly in need of improvement. The first few seconds on every level are wasted as the screen is blocked by an unnecessary message. That info should be in the tutorial or even learned by error. There are the levels where the target numbers are too small to read (the font is fuzzy in the numerators of fractions.) The knife is about 500 pts. wide with no indication of where it will cut. Once you cut the eel using the ruler, the scoring shows targets that are off when measured by the ruler provided. The worst mistake is on the last couple levels where a target of 11/2 is displayed as 1/2 - there is no way to know whether the first digit was dropped by programming error or if the target really is 1/2. An educational ap should not have such a gross error.
This game is exactlly what I was looking for, and it looks fantastic. Great job, I highly recomend this educational game.
It teaches me a lot!
It's a fun game for the kids to learn fractions on. Would have been nice to have a few more levels and the ability to control the difficulty, but maybe that will come with the paid version.
