My two boys when age 8 and 10 have learnt how to do algebra! It's so easy. You just leave your child to play on this app and it gradually teaches your child the steps for algebra. My older son completed the 5plus and 12plus app then went on to do algebra on paper. He saw it a fun because doing it on this app is fun. My youngest loves doing this app. He goes over and over again doing the algebra on this app starting from the beginning. If he gets stuck it shows you how to work it out. The app encourages the children to experiment with different options until they find the right answer. This app is a must for helping your child to love maths!!!!!!!!!
