Colleen in SEVA Posted June 14, 2011 Share Posted June 14, 2011 http://bigbrainz.com/ This is a wonderful FREE product for memorizing multiplication facts (it works!!). They have just added a way to practice division facts, and are working on addition & subtraction. The free version is fully functioning and covers all facts through 12 x 12. They sell a deluxe version that includes different "worlds" to play in, but is not necessary. When we originally downloaded this, I told my oldest DS that I would buy the upgrade when he completed all the levels, which my second DS ended up doing in about 2 weeks, then they both happily went through all the levels again via the new worlds. I very highly recommend this product!! And no, I do not work for them, receive any compensation for my endorsement, or even know anyone who works at this company.

Princess Peach Posted June 14, 2011 Share Posted June 14, 2011 Thanks!! This is timely for us, since I want the kids to brush up on their facts, but I know they will balk at "school" during their summer vacation. :001_smile: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mom2boys030507 Posted June 14, 2011 Share Posted June 14, 2011 Thanks! I think my son will enjoy this. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Colleen in SEVA Posted June 14, 2011 Author Share Posted June 14, 2011 SHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!!! My kids don't know this is school! :D It is written by people who used to work for a company that made Playstation games, so it "feels" like a video game. G has even figured out ways to trick it into letting him do things you shouldn't be able to, like walking on the ceiling and climbing up walls. Of course, to do this he has to do all of the 6 times tables to GET to that area, so it really is "math with a candy coating." Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
warneral Posted June 14, 2011 Share Posted June 14, 2011 I wish it were 40.00 for mult, div, add, subt! My son loved it but then he "beat" it and stopped playing. This will add a new dimension :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
.... Posted June 14, 2011 Share Posted June 14, 2011 :thumbup: My oldest two kids absolutely LOVE Timez Attacks!! I can't wait for the addition/subtraction to come out. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
truebluexf Posted June 14, 2011 Share Posted June 14, 2011 Cool. Maybe DS will start to like this game again. He gets frustrated that he can't hit the numbers fast enough. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Legomom Posted June 16, 2011 Share Posted June 16, 2011 This looks great. We just started http://www.multiplication.com games today, but really need some division refreshers too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DawnL Posted June 16, 2011 Share Posted June 16, 2011 I so wish they had addition and subtraction right now! My 7 year old needs to memorize addition and subtraction over the summer and I can't find any fun ways to do it. Kill and drill is NOT going to work for this child.

courtney.byrum Posted June 16, 2011 Share Posted June 16, 2011 My son LOVES this! He also really enjoys xGerms that he got to use during k12. He is thrilled about the division being added :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
