Description:

In Mighty Math: Number Heroes, the basic concepts for three years of elementary math lessons are explored. There are four activities: Fraction Fireworks, in which you put on a fireworks show with Fraction Man's help; GeoComputer, where GeoBot will help you transmit solutions to geometry problems; Quizzo, where you'll meet Star Brilliant and compete in the hottest math game show around; and Probability, where Handsome Chance uses probabilities to make action figures - of himself!

  • Problem solving,
  • Addition & subtraction,
  • Multiplication & Division
  • Fractions
  • Convert decimals to fractions,

Reactions:

Fraction Fireworks was our favorite activity - it really helps kids to see problems presented in concrete, tangible ways. As kids advance through the work, the Grow Slides advance, offering more sophisticated challenges. Parents may set the difficulty level or choose a mathematical concept for kids to work on. It's really nice to see a title so configurable to the individual child's needs.
