Designed by teachers to promote daily, grade-level specific summer math practice. Help for kids going into grades 1-5 to retain those hard-earned math skills over summer break. Each grade-level module is available as an in-app purchase at just $5.99 for the entire summer.
Through daily practice, Math Star will help your child:
• Develop grade-level fact fluency in just 10-15 minutes per day.
• Stay the course with reminders to do the Math Star daily practice.
• Build their math confidence through guided practice.
• Improve reasoning and flexibility in problem solving through a variety of math concept activity questions
• Stay accountable with parent progress reports, so you’ll know how your child is doing.
Of all subjects, math is hardest hit by summer learning loss.
Summer break is a great time for children to relax and recharge, but its also when learning loss occurs. Of all subjects, math is hardest hit by summer learning loss with an estimated 2.6 months of grade level equivalency in math skills lost over the summer months. Regular practice with problem solving, computation, and math logic preserve mathematical gains made during the school year.
Guided practice is important.
Unlike games that allow your child to choose which skills they practice (they like to work their strengths), our algorithm ensures they practice all their skills for 10-15 minutes a day over the summer break, keeping them sharp and ready for the next school year!
