ScribbleMath allows children in grades 1-6 practice addition, subtraction, multiplication and division, and its packed with features that make it a prefect complement to math instruction. Adjust problem difficulty, change how students answer questions, add time limits, and more.

Improving childrens math understanding requires more than just practice. To help learners understand the problems they get wrong, ScribbleMath includes an explanation engine. Each time a question is answered incorrectly, the student can pause the quiz theyre taking and walk through the solution. ScribbleMath reveals the correct answer step by step, explaining everything from arithmetic to basic equations with negative numbers. Watch as subtraction is animated using blocks on a number line, or see the solution to -6 x X = 126 broken into more than fifteen steps: isolating the variable, performing long division, and then negating the answer.

As students use ScribbleMath and complete quizzes, they unlock stickers they can use to decorate the cover of their ScribbleMath practice book. In our user testing, students loved being able to make designs and patterns to personalize their virtual books.

ScribbleMath was designed to help you understand and follow your childrens learning. ScribbleMath ties into the free Kodiak Reporting tool, allowing you to see when your children are using the app, identify questions theyre missing, track their improvement over time, and more. Kodiak keeps you in control of your childrens data, and brings you reports you can use for secondary assessment.

Kodiak supports multiple students and multiple iPads beautifully. You can create a profile for each student, and their progress is synced to the cloud so their unlocked stickers are available on any iPad they pick up in the classroom. The quizzes you create are also synced between iPads tied to your Kodiak account. Create a quiz on one iPad and students can take it on all the devices in your classroom. Yes, you can finally stop changing the settings of every iPad on your cart.
