Math BINGO
This app is designed for practice in the 4
operations- addition, subtraction, multiplication and division. The user can choose which operation they
would like to practice. A nice feature
is the ability to choose the level in each operation- easy, medium and hard. On the BINGO card are numbers and when the
user is shown an operation question, he/she must chose the answer from the
BINGO card. If the correct answer is
picked, a figure (such as a flower in the free version or bug in the $.99
version) appears on that number. If the
answer is not shown, the user is prompted with a small sound (sounds like
uh-uh) and then the correct solution is shown.
The object of the game is to get 5 bugs in a row. The user can save their progress by creating
a profile, another great feature of this game.
This option is not available in the free version. This is really the only difference in the two
versions.
This app has great visuals and is a wonderful tool
to use for small group, large group or by an individual student to practice
facts. It’s also great to use during
your daily mental math. The only thing that I would like to see added to this
app is option of switching operations in a level. For example, the user can presently choose
addition or subtraction in one level and only that one operation is used. I would like to see both addition and
subtraction questions asked in a level so that the user must pay attention to
the operation sign. This is a skill that
many students need to practice (paying attention to what the question is asking
them to do).
Other than this one thing, Math BINGO is a wonderful
app. For only $.99 for the app, I would
recommend buying the app so that the user can save their progress.
