Features & Capabilities

Hands-On Equations Level 1 makes algebra visual, intuitive, and enjoyable for children ages 8 and up. Using blue pawns, numbered cubes, and a balance model, students learn to solve equations by understanding mathematical concepts—not by memorizing rules.

Across six sequenced lessons and one review lesson, learners explore equivalence, algebraic notation, checking solutions, legal moves, subtraction, and parentheses. They can build confidence while solving equations often introduced in middle school, including multi-step equations. Designed for gifted children, elementary and middle school students, struggling high school learners, and adults who want to revisit algebra, the app brings a proven learning system used by more than one million students to an engaging digital experience.

Cons

Video playback and audio issues on several devices that prevent watching the lessons.

Good app

I bought this for my daughter and honestly didn’t expect much — most math apps are just dressed-up flashcards. This one is different. She’s moving little pawns around a balance scale and solving real equations without even realizing that’s what she’s doing. When I told her “you just did algebra,” her face lit up. The lessons go at a good pace and build on each other, so she never feels lost or bored. No flashy distractions, no annoying characters, just a clear method that works. She actually asks to do the next lesson, which has never happened with any other math app in our house. If your kid is curious about math or struggling with it, give this a try. Worth every penny.
