Game for A, S, M and D
Math Slicer is an app in which students solve math problems, and then have to "slice the answer in half" in a given amount of time. The answer choices jump up on the screen and students have to slice them before they disappear. Students can select the type of problems that they want to practice--addition, subtraction, multiplication or division. Students can also select the speed with which the problems and answer choices appear on their screens.
