NumBots

Maths Circle

About this game

A highly engaging platform for learning to add and subtract, created by teachers and math experts.

NumBots is all about every child achieving the “triple win” of understanding, recall and fluency in mental addition and subtraction, so that they move from counting to calculating.

This carefully sequenced programme boosts children's confidence while developing their understanding of math basics - preparing every child to succeed at math.

Suitable from Kindergarten (US) upwards. Younger players will be able to access the early stages from a mathematical point of view but will find it increasingly hard to reach the level of fluency required to make progress.

Ratings and reviews

Not suitable for 5 year olds. Our son's school asked that we start using numbots in year 1. All it's achieved is damaging his confidence and instilling a reluctance to do maths. This is a shame, as he is capable. The problem: All levels are timed... and not much time is given. Our son gets all the answers right but does not progress through levels as he doesn't do it quick enough, leading to frustration and a dwindling desire to continue. Other apps are better. We don't use numbots any more.

I love this app, it is provided by my son's school for Maths practice and he enjoys it so much. It is fun, challenging and rewarding. I just wish there was a way to transfer accounts from one school to another so he does not lose the last 2 years of progress.

Good practice although very very repetitive (I guess that's the point). Currently won't let us past level 56 despite getting every question right. We've tried it about 6 times and it only gives one star so have to repeat the level. It seems to be impossible to get 3 stars (I'm a maths teacher and even I can't get them doing it super fast and 100% accurate) but now we are completely stuck. Help please!
