What’s It About?
In 2ND GRADE SPLASH MATH EDUCATION LEARNING WORKBOOK, kids solve a series of math problems in an undersea world. Every time they solve 10 to 15 problems, with answers presented in multiple-choice or click-and-drag format, they'll earn a cute fish to add to their virtual aquarium. Kids are given visuals such as number lines, base-10 blocks, coins, graphs, tables, and a clock with movable hands that can help them solve the problems. They'll enjoy playing within the aquarium every time they earn a new fish -- or can continue to tackle math problems instead.
Is It Any Good?
The graphics and sounds in 2nd Grade Splash Math Education Learning Workbook are clear and colorful without being distracting, and instructions on the screen are visual (clicking and dragging, for example, is an animated instruction). The origami-style fish are cute, and kids will enjoy solving math problems to earn fish for their aquariums. Parents have the option of choosing whether or not questions are read to kids (via a digitized voice), which could be helpful for kids who are prereaders or who have reading difficulties.
The 13 chapters of math topics are well-structured and allow the flexibility to choose a single skill or a range to work on. 2nd Grade Splash Math Education Learning Workbook is much more than a math-facts drill app, as it reviews many of the important number-sense concepts. And parents will feel good about being able to track their kids' progress. The biggest drawback is that the aquarium reward system is completely disconnected from the learning process.

Did we miss something on diversity?
Research shows a connection between kids' healthy self-esteem and positive portrayals in media. That's why we've added a new "Diverse Representations" section to our reviews that will be rolling out on an ongoing basis. You can help us help kids by suggesting a diversity update.
