Very basic

This app is okay, but I'm disappointed that it is so limiting given the cost. EG. I can’t use MAB to model 12 x 12 because you can’t access more than 9 tens or units. It’s really only good for very specified uses with very young children. There’s no potential for teachers to use the app more creatively.

Awesome app!

We love this app!!!! It is amazing how easy it is to learn place values by using this app!!!!!!! 🛍🌸🦄💘🎀💖🍬🍓🍭

Disappointed

This app should do everything I need it to do however, I can't use it with my students because it doesn't always correct their answers correctly. For example, sometimes when they have made the number correctly it tells them they are either too low or high. If this problem could be fixed that would be great. Also, it would be great if you could have the option to select a chart labeled H T O for classrooms that use the term ones instead of units. The concept is there just not quite polished.

Great App!

I am very impressed by this app. I love how there are different ways to differentiate throughout this app. Students can listen and see the number being asked for them to answer. This is a good source for students to use when base ten blocks are not available to them. This app is a great way to work with students one on one in order to assess their learning.

Disappointed

The idea is great but when I had a play around with it, it told me the answer was too low when the answer was actually correct. This happened several times. If a child was doing this without adult supervision and this kept happening they would get frustrated. Rating would be higher if this was fixed.
