How the Game Works

Kahoot! Algebra by DragonBox uses a unique pedagogical approach based on discovery and experimentation. The game teaches key algebraic concepts such as addition, division, and multiplication through a playful and colorful environment. Players manipulate cards to isolate the DragonBox, which gradually transitions into isolating X in an equation. This method allows children to learn at their own pace, with the game replacing cards with numbers and variables as they progress.

The app is designed for unsupervised play, but parents can assist in transferring the skills learned in the game to solving equations on paper. It's also a great opportunity for parents to refresh their own math skills while engaging with their children.
