Does "Motion" help you learn Math?
Monday, November 1, 2010 at 8:00AM There is a new app that I came across from a colleague, Dan Rezac, that I am interested in getting some feedback on. Motion Math - http://motionmathgames.com/. Has anyone used this app that can give us some feedback on the quality?
Mr. Klein said they chose to make a game about fractions because it’s a subject that is particularly tough for elementary-school students, and kids do better with fractions if they can develop a visceral understanding of them — something that sounds perfectly attuned to their “embodied cognition” theory.

Hello IEAR,
You can find some reviews of our game here: http://motionmathgames.com/reviews/
We'd love to hear your thoughts, especially because we're currently working on the native iPad version of Motion Math.
Best,
