Great app for the classroo!

This is a great way to help students practice fractions. I love the different levels of difficulty, but would love to see decimals and percents added as well, so students could see the relationships between fractions, decimals and percent. If these could be added, this would be an awesome app for students in my school prepare for a year end assessment mandated by my School Board.

Great app

With the help of this app it is easy to learn how to estimate fractions. In the process students create a deeper understanding for fractions. The app is full of very nice details; like the visual hint that only appears when you appear to think too long.
