2.0 out of 5 stars Very much like a video game, October 23, 2001

If your goal is to engage a child who is otherwise not interested in math, this maybe a good program for you. However, my 1st grade daughter loves math and is frustrated by this game. Her "video game skills" are not sufficient for her to play some of the games well, even when she knows the mathematical answers. I would not recommend this to a child looking for math practice.

My 5 and 1/2 yr. old granddaughter loves her math blaster cd rom. Almost every time I call, she's on her computer working with the math blaster. She's counting change and starting to learn how to tell time already, among other things. It's been great!

I am teacher who is tutoring a student not so interested in school. He loves the Math and Reading Blaster software. He is eager to practice his math skills at home AND AT SCHOOL . He can't wait to see his tutor!

*I only wish they had story problems, which would fit the current Mathematics standards better...
