Mathseeds review

Mathseeds is the most structured early math course on this list and one of the cheapest. Its App Store listing describes 200 self-paced lessons that take a child from no math skills to a grade 3 level, a placement test to start at the right point, end-of-map quizzes and Driving Tests to check mastery, detailed reports and hundreds of printable worksheets. Blake eLearning says the program teaches foundational skills in about 15 minutes a day. In the US App Store it costs $6.99 a month or $49.99 a year, and a plan that adds Reading Eggs costs $13.99 a month. The website offers a free 30-day trial. It ranks fourth because it stops at grade 3: a 10-year-old will outgrow it, while DreamBox Math runs to grade 8. For a 4 to 8 year old who needs a clear path through counting, place value, time and early operations, it is excellent value. We compared documented features and published prices.
