What I love most about this platform is how much my students (K-8) genuinely enjoy using it. They often log on without any prompting or assignments from me, simply because they find it so engaging. The best part is that they don’t even realize they’re doing math most of the time! The platform’s gamified approach allows them to "play" by battling each other, but to recharge their energy, they have to solve math problems. It’s a fun and effective way to keep them learning.
There’s so much I love about this website, but the biggest highlight for me is its versatility—I can find resources suitable for any of my students. Considering I work with learners of all ages, from kindergarteners to adults, that’s no small feat! This site is a recent discovery for me, and what initially caught my attention was its Pac-Man-themed activities. Beyond that, the games stood out for being genuinely engaging, and my students absolutely loved them. Anything that my students enjoy and that helps them practice their math skills is always an A+ in my book.
