Watch worked examples, try hands-on activities and practise through games. Meet friendly dinosaurs in Dino-Math Party, catch answers in Math Fishing and balance both sides in Equal Crossing. Younger children can explore counting, shapes, patterns and tracing in Little Explorers. Fraction addition and subtraction include a hint that shows both bottom numbers’ multiples and highlights their first shared number. Change either bottom number to explore a new example. Other adventures include Numberton Safari for whole-number and decimal rounding, Circuit Cruisers for geometry, and Fraction Forge for hands-on fraction puzzles.
