Math Galaxy app and ebook review
Disclaimer: I received a FREE copy of this product through the HOMESCHOOL REVIEW CREW in exchange for my honest review. I was not required to write a positive review nor was I compensated in any other way.
Math Galaxy provides math games and math worksheets such as the Whole Numbers Balloon Pop app and the Math Galaxy Time and Money Riddles eBook.
Apps:
I had the opportunity to review several apps. Most of the apps I reviewed, 3rd Grade Math, 4th Grade Math, 6th Grade Math, were similar but just for different grade levels. The other app I reviewed was the Times Tables Balloon Pop app about multiplication.
The Times Tables Balloon Pop app starts out with you first select the Times table you would like to work on. Then the app is a simple app that displays a multiplication fact with several balloons with numbers on it. When you tap on the right answer the balloon pops and another multiplication question comes up. This was a fun way for my children to practice multiplication facts.
The other Apps I reviewed were comprehensive math apps that were 3rd Grade Math, 4th Grade Math, 6th Grade Math. The apps are pretty much the same except the concepts are more difficult for the higher grades. The 6th Grade Math app only has one game but that’s understandable since its for older kids. I was pleasantly surprised by my son picking up the app and playing it on his own without my prompting. Many times, I like to download an app and see how long it is before they start using it.
His favorite game to play was the Labyrinth game. I suspect this is since he really likes mazes. To play the game you must earn a robot by working on other math facts.
Even though my son hasn’t worked a lot on fractions, he really liked the game for fraction addition.
Along with interactive games, there are also videos
Lastly you can even save your progress.
ebooks:
We were also provided ebooks which provided riddles that you solve by answering all the math problems. I received Whole Numbers, Fractions, Decimals, Proportions, Percents, and Algebra ebooks.
The ebooks provide plenty of fun practice for all the math problems. The solutions are well worked out like the Fraction addition shown below.
Overall my son really enjoyed the apps and I found him numerous times playing them for fun. The ebooks provide a great supplement for any math program you use for your homeschool.
