How the Game Works
Kahoot! Algebra by DragonBox introduces young learners to key algebraic concepts such as addition, division, and multiplication. Suitable for children aged five and above, the game employs a unique pedagogical approach centered on discovery and experimentation. In a vibrant and playful setting, players learn to solve equations by manipulating cards to isolate the DragonBox, which gradually transitions into isolating the variable X in traditional equations. As players progress, the game seamlessly introduces numbers and variables, reinforcing the operations they've been practicing.
The game is designed for independent play, but parents can also participate, helping children apply their newfound skills to solve equations on paper. It's an excellent opportunity for family bonding and for parents to refresh their own math knowledge.
Developed by former math teacher Jean-Baptiste Huynh, DragonBox has been celebrated for its innovative approach to game-based learning. It has been the subject of extensive research by the Center for Game Science at the University of Washington.
