2. An iPad® Strategy Game for Fractions Skills Practice
I also wanted to share a fun fractions resource that ETA hand2mind recently launched.
The VersaMate app for iPad is a fun strategy game that can be used for skills practice. It’s great for small groups, individual practice, or even as a recommendation to parents for extra help for their students.
VersaMate is a free download that comes with 2 sample fractions activities. Additional modules can be unlocked with an additional in-app purchase.
Learn more about this app at hand2mind.com/versamate or download it directly through the app store!
