I want a thousands block

This game is great but there’s one problem, we need a thousands block! I know you can place 10 hundred blocks to replicate a thousand but the option for a thousands block is so much better. Please add a thousands block so that I’ll be happy.

Great progress but I want the thousands block. And add the color option blue.

Wow! This is the best math apps I’ve seen! Great job! :)

Correct

C’est bien mais il n’y a pas beaucoup de place,l’es bloc son trop gros et il y a une limite de bloc après quelques secondes mais sinon c’est bien

I Need More Updates!

I Need A Thousand Block, Ten Thousand block, a Hundred Thousand Block, A Million Block, 3D Mode, And An Even Bigger Screen!

I love it

I love it

Wonderful but would like split screen ability

This app is great for playing around with place value and base ten ideas. I would love to see the ability to use the split screen option on iPads- would be so helpful for my virtual learners who are using it to help them with the Bridges workbook pages.

Hope

I hope to add a split screen service in an iPad

It deletes itself

So in school everyday we have math and the teacher wants us to use this but then if you leave the app for even a second everything is automatically deleted so please get rid of this feature or fix this glitch because it gets on my nerves a lot.

App review

This app is best utilized with teacher-based instruction. Students are likely to be somewhat engaged with the application since elements are basic. . The ability to create base ten blocks with the number pieces are not challenging and students are not distracted by any additional frills. However, there is no instruction, or game-like quality for students to do independently so teacher instruction is needed in order for students to understand the purpose of using the app, what they are creating, and what it represents. Additionally, there is no way for a teacher to assess student’s growth or record their progress.

Great for homeschool

I love this free, ad free app! My kids love using the iPad for school, and this math app gives me access to math manipulative that are expensive and hard to store. They can be used with any math curriculum for a variety of grades. This app is also easy to use, colorful but not distracting.

Error in App Details example

While in the example given in the App Store, the participant's hand written answer is correct, the coloration of the blocks does not match the problem. Clearly the app did not help the participant get the correct answer. Seems a correctly applied example would be used to promote the app.

Needs large cubes for thousandths.

If the developers would add large cubes to this app, it would be perfect. Common core needs thousandths.

Almost perfect

I love having the ability to rotate the base ten blocks, especially when working with division concepts with 2-digit divisors. This is the only virtual manipulative that I have found that has that option! I would love if there was a way to include a thousands cube. This would be especially helpful as we get into decimal place value to the thousandths. Thank you!

Excellent

The ability to break larger units into smaller units and the reverse is beautiful. I hope you develop more like this!

Great for CPA approach to math instruction and Singapore Math strategies

Thank you for this great app. I use it with my students and share it during staff development opportunities. Would you please create this same kind of app using place value disks too? Thanks!

Essential Elementary Math App

I look for math apps that are simple and versatile. This "base ten manipulative" app is all of that and free to boot. It is excellent to demonstrate and/or model a variety of mathematical operations.
