HOW THE GAME WORKS
Kahoot! Algebra by DragonBox covers the following algebraic concepts:
* Addition
* Division
* Multiplication
Recommended for age five and up, Kahoot! Algebra by DragonBox gives young learners the opportunity to get familiar with the basics of equation solving.
Kahoot! Algebra by DragonBox uses a novel pedagogical method based on discovery and experimentation. Players learn how to solve equations in a playful and colorful game environment where they are encouraged to experiment and use creative skills. By manipulating cards and trying to isolate the DragonBox on one side of the game board, the player gradually learns the operations required to isolate X on one side of an equation. Little by little, the cards are replaced with numbers and variables, revealing the addition, division and multiplication operators the player has been learning throughout the game.
Playing does not require any supervision, although parents can assist children in transferring acquired skills into solving equations on paper. It is a great game for parents to play with their kids and can also give them an opportunity to freshen up their own math skills.
DragonBox was developed by former math teacher Jean-Baptiste Huynh and has been recognized as an outstanding example of game-based learning. As a result, DragonBox games have formed the basis of an extensive research project by the Center For Game Science at the University of Washington.

Annoying had to pay for it if I was going to be using it more
This and the other apps are FUBAR on the Google Pixel 6 and 7- the payment page and the registration page is screwed up because the ap prevents proper auto rotation to use/find the buttons (and the size is gigantic but no ability to shrink it), the registration process isn't working correctly, and payments don't process. *** Update - I contacted via email and never had a response, but apparently the payment DID process as a charge just tried to run again for an app we never could use.
Not possible to try the app without purchasing a plan.
The app was great when i bought it, now I can't seem to reinstall and use it. Not worth the hassle of contacting anyone. Will find something else.
I am not happy. My child was not impressed by the app and they forced 1 Yr subscription on me which I haven't realised until the payment has left my account. Wouldn't recommend.
This used to be a GREAT app you paid for once. Now greed has taken it over and they demand a subscription sending them money continually. Stay away from greedy companies.
