Math Slide: Place Value School Edition

Math Slide is a multiplayer game helping children understanding place value of numbers up to 1,000. This School Edition contains the same games as Math Slide: tens & ones and Math Slide: Hundreds, tens & ones.

Players learn by sliding tiles into the center to match an answer, equation or image. The player who slides their tiles first wins.

Fully understanding hundreds, tens & ones is essential to progressing and succeeding at math. Progressing from counting to using number facts and place value is difficult for many children. This app is specifically designed to help children make this critical progression, helping them ‘see’ and understand that 21 is 2 tens and 1 one and that 7 hundreds, 11 tens and 3 ones is 813.

Features
• Multiplayer game, suitable for one, two, three or four players
• 20 games all focused on place value
• Each game is a little harder than the previous game
• The app focuses on critical math concepts vital for success

Math Adventures is a New Zealand company helping children learn mathematics. We develop apps that focus on the key concepts that need to be fully understood to progress and succeed in mathematics. Our apps range from learning to count up to understanding and using fractions and decimals, with each app focusing on one key concept.

We believe:
• Everyone can learn mathematics
• Playing educationally rich games and apps improves understanding
• Learning math should be fun and exciting, a rewarding adventure

Our growing variety of apps is research based and classroom tested to make sure they help children learn.

Math Slide is part of our ‘play and learn’ series, which are games high in educational value where children learn as they play. We are also currently developing ‘learning’ apps which use the power of the iPad to help children understand and learn key math concepts and to unravel misunderstandings.
