Bumblebee Math provides practice in addition, subtraction, multiplication, and division. Three levels of problems are presented during the game. The levels increase in difficulty. Within each of the levels problems are randomly generated so every game is a unique experience. The game begins after the player selects a math skill and number of problems (10,25 or 50). This app is appropriate for elementary age students who are in grades 3 through 6 or older students who need more practice to improve math skills. Select the Level and Number of Problems for Each Game Tap the settings icon and use a slider to select an appropriate level for the game. Once the skill level has been selected the players tap the 'GO' button to indicate that they are ready to begin. Randomly generated math problems flash on the screen at the selected level. The student directs their bumblebee toward the correct answer by tapping the screen. Play continues until the student completes the specified number of problems for each level. This game is challenging and fun. The game provides fast action as students tap the screen to lead the bee to the correct answer to randomly generated math problems.
