Game Description:

Spongee Math Fun is a simple math practice game that lets kids do addition, subtraction, and multiplication without the boredom of doing so on a regular worksheet.

It is set as an soap bubble adventure where players help SpongeBob pop bubbles containing the correct answers to various math problems.

It is that straightforward and easy to pick up, which is exactly why it is so appealing to younger children in lower grades.

Best Grade 3 Game For Math Practice

Spongee Math Fun is a nice choice for 3^rd grade kids who need some extra math practice. Rather than just listing questions one after another, the game gives kids an active way to interact with the answers.

Every time the right bubble is popped, you get a little sound effect. This is part of the enticing feedback that makes the whole experience feel exciting and fun rather than feel like a math exercise.

There are also three difficulty levels to choose from: easy, medium and hard.

So a child can start with the easier questions and move up the ladder when they are ready. The game has a time limit too. This way kids have to think about their answers instead of taking forever on each question, a feat which stimulates quick thinking ability.

This game contains the below number ranges that aligns with Common Core State Standards.

	Easy	Medium	Hard

How to Play

First, the child chooses between addition, subtraction or multiplication.
Next, they choose the difficulty level: easy, medium or hard.
A math question then appears on the screen. You might get something like ? + ? = 22.
Different bubbles appear around SpongeBob, each with a possible answer.
The child moves SpongeBob toward the bubble they think is correct and pops it.
There are 30 seconds to answer each question, so you have to be fairly quick.
SpongeBob starts with three hearts. Get an answer wrong and you lose one.
Once the time or hearts run out, the game ends and the score is shown.

Educational Benefits

The game gives kids repeated practice with addition, subtraction and multiplication, which can help them get quicker with basic calculations.
Since they only have a short amount of time to answer, kids get good practice doing simple math mentally.
The easy, medium and hard options allow one to choose questions depending on the math level.
Having to watch the bubbles while solving the question is great at keeping kids attentive and engaged with the questions.
