"Thank you so much for the 5 star rating. After seeing my 8 year old learn the fundamentals of Algebra in one afternoon of game play I was certainly impressed with DragonBox. So impressed that I contacted the company and convinced the developers to hire me. I am a former math teacher as well as a parent. I know first hand how stressful algebra can be for some students. I'm on a mission to get this app into the hands of kids before they develop that oh so common math phobia. Algebra is fun, play with it! ~Megan" Read more >
