My latest app, Rocket Math (now Mathmateer), is finished! After the success of Stack the States, I wanted to follow up with another app that was both educational AND fun to play. In this new app, you build your own rockets from the ground up. As you build your rocket, you have to earn money for parts by doing math problems. Once your rocket is complete, you can put it on the launch pad and blast off into space. Tilt the device to steer your rocket and move a slider to control the thrust.
Once you’re in space, the real fun begins! While your rocket is floating weightlessly, play one of the 56 different math missions. Each mission has touchable objects floating in space, including stars, coins, clocks, 3D shapes and even pizzas! Earn a bronze, silver or gold medal and also try to beat your high score. Missions range in difficulty from even/odd numbers all the way to square roots, so kids and their parents will enjoy hours of fun while learning math.
56 DIFFERENT MATH MISSIONS: Numbers, Fractions, Decimals, Counting, Telling Time, U.S. Money, Shapes (2D and 3D), Patterns, Addition, Subtraction, Multiplication, Division, Square Roots and many more!
