I bought this for my son (headed into 5th grade) for summer practice. He loved it! He was on it constantly till he finished it. I was impressed. The software makes them think through some abstract and multi-step math. He wanted me to help him (do some for him) so he could get the "tiles" and move on with the story.

Rating: - You're the ClueFinder in this game
The ClueFinders' are four kids who as a team gather clues and solve a mystery. They solve fractions, solve English problems, and many more educational games. It is a fun way of learning, and it is intresting, easy, and awsome. I highly recommend any ClueFinder's game there is, because they teach you and let you have fun at the same time. This product is defienitly worth its' money.

The math section makes doing fractions fun. Cylindrical tubes are ... Read More
