Product Review - Splash Math 2nd grade -



Product: Splash Math for Grade 2

Review:  Cute graphics that are make learning math fun for kids - lots of things to keep them interested and playing - win points and prizes for your work that can be used at different places on the app.  My kids love this game because I let them use anytime and its loads of fun while learning.  A great combination for anyone needing to learn something - math is so important and students need as much exposure to math and math concepts at younger and younger ages to stick with it - math and science jobs are a plenty - but there are very few qualified individuals to fill them.

Kids need math - high school's require 3-4 years of math and you need to pass those classes so getting your kids started early so that they can learn to enjoy math is a great plan - get your kids doing and enjoying math for life - start them young for sure.  Anything that gets a child to work on math is a great product.

Other Review:-
Simply Second- Splash Math: This is my most favorite! I have the 1st, 2nd, and 3rd grade apps. They are more spendy, but they cover the standards and the kids love it! It's organized by skill, so I can have students practice exactly what I want. I think it's great test practice with it's multiple choice format. It even has a built-in scratch paper feature. Twice a week I get 30 iPads during math. If a student finishes their work early I usually have them go on this app to practice our targeted skill. If I don't have the iPad lab I will sometimes just project the app and have the kids take turns.
