This game is designed as short independent practice after an idea has been introduced. It does not replace direct teaching, mathematical or scientific discussion, or an adult checking whether the learner can explain the idea away from the screen.

For parents and carers

Ask whether the value is exact or rounded, which endpoint is excluded and which algebraic rule justifies each step. Take a break when you need one.
