This app unsuccessfully uses the concept of triangular flash cards for students to learn and practice their multiplication and division facts.Triangle flash cards, which have one member of each fact family at each point, can be a very effective way for students to learn the relationship between inverse operations. Unfortunately, this app implements that concept in a confusing and visually overwhelming format. On each screen, students will need to drag and drop the missing factor for four different problems.They will need to scan a crowded screen of numbers and operations, bright colors, and an unnecessarily confusing layout. The app does not explain incorrect answers, enable tracking of troublesome facts, or provide any meaningful incentives for a child to want to continue. While this app does provide educationally appropriate content to learn multiplication and division facts, very few students are likely to find it enjoyable or helpful.

Super number triangles is a visual maths game for children to help them learn their times tables in both directions from 2-12 (multiplication and division). For those that already know their times tables, the highest game level is a 'Sudoku' logic style game using all times tables knowledge.

The early stages of learning basic maths skills can make a big difference on whether your child finds maths a chore or a joy. Sometimes presenting something differently can just make everything click into place. Times tables are one of the elements of maths that many children learn through memory rather than understanding the relationship between the numbers. They can tell you that 6 times 7 equals 42, but 42 divided by 7 may prove difficult for them.

Super number triangles works in a visual way, showing that 6 times 7 equals 42, 7 times 6 equals 42, 42 divided by 6 equals 7 and 42 divided by 7 equals 6.
