A math app to have...
Fractions + is an amazingly engaging app that truly makes learning math fun. Teaching fractions are such an abstract concept to many children but this app starts from the most basic concepts and makes learning fractional parts into a lovely game. The game is fast paced and fun so children were concentrating and waiting for their chance to put everything into order and make the pieces disappear every time they got a fractional match right. My favorite part is that each level is a progression a child is building and reviewing what they know, while learning what comes next. It is wonderful!
I love that this app includes picture representation of fractions, numerical representations and that you can use the metric or standard system, which was a nice inclusion. Overall, I like that this app can be a wonderful guide to teaching children how to identify, locate and match fractions. There are so many levels within the app. The children were going past twenty and still more to go! Plenty done and more to do, this app will not disappoint.

Easily Distracting
This app does an excellent job of making matching forms of fractions entertaining. I got distracted by the various goals of the game and would prefer that it only focus on one goal - matching fractions. Young users like the game probably because it does not focus on the work of fractions the entire time, but personally and as a teacher, I would prefer more focus on the work.

What fun!
Fractions+ is a fantastic game to help solidify fraction concepts in a visual and fun way. Their are 30 levels of game play which allows one to cover fraction basics in detail. Most importantly the fast-pased game keeps the child interested in the game while solidfying the fraction concepts taught. The instruction before each level can be improved by having an audible instruction in addition to written text.

Fun and educational
I generally don't enjoy math very much but this a very fun and unique math game that appeals to children and adults. Once I start playing it's pretty difficult to put down. It is a perfect balance between an educational app and a fun game. It is challenging enough to keep it fun and interesting but not so much that it keeps you from wanting to play it.

Fun way to learn!
The game itself was fun, so it kept my kid's interest. He didn't even know he was studying! ha! Perfect.
Fun!
I think Fractions+ is a fun, engaging app that will allow your child to grow in their knowledge of fractions. Children will love the gaming atmosphere and not realize they are learning fractions. Each level is a progression, teaching your child step by step how to locate and identify fractions.
Fabulous!
This is a great app for all levels of learning: from matching the pictorial version of a fraction with its numerical counterpart, to equivalent fractions, to decimal representation, to measurement representation--both metric and standard. The entertainment value comes into play when the player completes a 'card'. The player races against a clock to clear their card. I'm currently working on level 28 and have not finished all that is offered in this app. Children and teachers will find this app to be incredibly engaging--it is very difficult to stop playing! (and learning!)
It is well worth the cost; buyers beware--you will become addicted.
