Splash Math Review

November 13, 2013 by Emilee Evans

Disclosure: I received the products mentioned to facilitate my review. Regardless, I only recommend products I feel would be good for my readers. All opinions are my own and those of my family.
$Splash Math Review$
You may remember this summer I share my review of the Splash Math 1st Grade App. Well, I am excited to share that Splash Math has brought their Splash Math Program online! Their recently launched website includes hundreds of skills from 1st through 5th Grade! In addition to the launch of the website they have also launched an updated app that syncs with their new website! The new app also includes grades 1st through 5th like the website! Any progress and rewards will be the same on both platforms! Splash Math uses an Adaptive Algorithm that finds a child’s true grade level with Splash Score. In this way, children can learn at their own pace, and all essential math skills are covered!

Because we already enjoy the previous Splash Math app we were eager to try the new Website and app! Although it is slightly different, there were many features that were the same, and the kids were really excited to get started! Although both of our older children (ages 5 and 7) are finishing up our First Grade year for our homeschooling year in the next couple of weeks I had them both work in the First Grade level so they could get a lot of extra practice, and to make sure we were really reinforcing the First Grade Math Skills before we move on to Second Grade in January. The First Grade level on the website doesn’t read the text like they were used to on the previous app, but this is a feature that is in the works! It turned out to not be that much of a challenge because the questions are pretty visual, and as long as they were aware of what category they were practicing they didn’t need much help with the questions.

As before, the kids enjoyed the rewards based system and loved playing the game at the end of the lesson. They were excited to have the Aquarium game with which they were already familiar, and they were excited to discover the new app also has a Jungle! I love that Splash Math offers rewards because it is motivation for the kids to practice their math and have time to play when they finish! The practice itself is also rewarding as they are constantly encouraged along the way from the hippo!
I love that I can access the children’s reports in the Parent Dashboard as well as receive emails with regular updates to see how they are doing, how they’ve used their practice time, skill performance, and more.
With Splash Math, our kids ASK to practice Math regularly. Generally we have been using it 4-5 times per week to supplement our homeschool Math Curriculum. It is a great way to get in extra Math practice that covers everything we’ve been learning, and they enjoy it as well! Plus with the app it’s portable, too! We can practice Math on the go or while we’re waiting at a doctor appointment!
I think Splash Math is a great addition to our Math curriculum, and it would be great for extra practice for children that attend private or public schools as well! *Update* As of 12/20/13 the prices for Splash Math have changed! New Pricing – $9.99 for one grade for one child or $29.99 for all grades for one child – for life-time! No subscription!
