App Review: Multiplication Simplified


Multiplication Simplified, $0.99 (iTunes link)
Multiplication Simplified is geared toward grade 3 students, or anyone else who wants to memorize his or her multiplication facts.  

This app introduces the multiplication facts visually by displaying  apples on a tree.  Students should complete a level with the "hint"  (apples) on and then repeat it with the "hint" off. When the child is ready to complete a level with the hint off, the teacher can choose a time and accuracy rate.    The student will keep practicing until s/he reaches the goal time and accuracy rate.  The child will receive a checkmark indicating successful completion of a level.  There are also mixed level questions for students who have completed the previous levels.

This app reinforces the necessary task of learning the multiplication tables in a manner that is way more fun than flash card drill and practice!
