Fraction Math vs Telling Time

Fraction Math helps students learn and practice fraction calculations step by step. The app can be used to study addition, subtraction, multiplication, and division with fractions. It supports positive and negative fractions, improper fractions, whole numbers, and mixed numbers. Students can also reduce the resulting fractions. Students can enter their own fractions, mixed numbers, and whole numbers. The app also includes an illustrated glossary of common fraction terms. Wired.com: “Quite a useful app for learning many fraction computations.” Fun Educational Apps: “Fraction Math app is easy to use and really takes you step by step when adding, subtracting or multiplying fractions.” Step-by-step fraction practice: In each step, the student is shown two possible choices. Sometimes both choices are correct. For example, when multiplying fractions, the student can choose to multiply the numerators or the denominators first. When there is only one correct next step, the other choice is a wrong step. If the student chooses the wrong step, the app explains why it is wrong. Intelligent help system: Fraction Math includes over 60 context-sensitive tips based on the current problem. For example, when finding the lowest common denominator, the help system first explains how to look for the answer. If the student still needs help, it can show the lowest common denominator. Animated learning: Every step is animated. The animation speed can be adjusted, and animations can also be turned off. Smart keyboard: When entering numbers, Fraction Math uses an intuitive rolling keyboard. Only one tap is needed to enter a number. When reducing fractions, a special prime number keyboard is shown. Illustrated fraction tips: The app includes many tips about fractions, mixed numbers, improper fractions, and reducing fractions. The tips include over 50 illustrations. Useful for different skill levels: - Add and subtract fractions with equal denominators - Add and subtract fractions and mixed numbers with different denominators - Reduce resulting fractions - Multiply fractions by whole numbers or other fractions - Divide fractions and mixed numbers - Use negative fractions, whole numbers, mixed numbers, and larger numbers Settings: - Allow addition - Allow subtraction - Allow multiplication - Allow division - Only allow fractions with the same denominator - Allow whole numbers - Allow mixed numbers - Allow negative numbers - Allow numbers greater than 12 Other iDevBooks Math Apps: Other iDevBooks math apps include Column Addition, Long Multiplication, Long Division, Column Subtraction, Lattice Multiplication, Visual Multiplication Table, Partial Differences Subtraction, Partial Quotients Division, Partial Sums Addition, Decimal Rounding, and more.

*** Used by many schools around the world *** Knowing how to tell & read time and calendar is a very important skill. Being able to tell time by looking at a traditional clock and at a digital clock is essential to understanding other things like time zones and international times as well. Learning how to tell time can also help kids with their motor and cognitive skills as well as mathematical skills. Many educators feel that the earlier the age of the child, the better. “Telling Time – It’s Easy” is the most comprehensive app, designed for children ages 6 to 11, to study telling / reading time and calendar, and other related topics. “Telling Time – It’s Easy” covers following topics / concepts / terms: * Reading / telling time in words and setting the traditional analog clock by moving the hour and minute hands, and listening to the time * Matching analog and digital clocks * Matching time in words and analog & digital clocks * Reading calendar and solving the problems * A.M. / P.M. * Seasons of the Year * Months of the Year * The days of the Week * The number of Days in each Month The app is designed to have a fun during learning process, so your kids will love this app. Attention Australian customers: many real questions on NAPLAN numeracy test (Year 3) are very similar to the questions in this app, so your kids can be prepared! Features: * choosing the number of questions (10, 15 or 20) * you can listen to the time that you set up in 'SET the clock' module - just choose 'Training Mode' * you can break lessons into teaching full hours, half past the hour, quarter to / past the hour, etc. * different play modes: -TRAINING MODE: The student gets immediate feedback and he/she can see the right answer and to know the way how to solve the problem. In the end, the student can see the total result. -PRACTICE MODE: The student just gets immediate feedback (correct / incorrect). In the end the student can see the total result. * progress report (shows the last and best result per each task) * reset statistics * sound control * option to disable the warning messages when you reset the statistics, restart the task, cancel the test, etc. Enjoy!
