Jawless Fish Races

Answer fast. Swim faster. Pick a topic, pick a level, and line up against three other fish. After "3, 2, 1, Swim!" a question pops up with four big answers. Get it right and your fish shoots forward.

A wrong answer makes your fish blush pink and knocks off a little speed, then shows you the right answer. That same question comes back three questions later, so you get another go while it is still fresh. When you cross the line, the results screen lists every question you missed, what you picked, and what the answer was. A race doubles as a study session. Fourteen topics across five subjects. Math: addition, subtraction, multiplication and division Words: spelling and opposites Time & Money: read a real clock face, count US coins, and work out the change from a bill ... more categories Every topic has Easy, Medium and Hard, and every one of those keeps its own best time and best finish.
