The 19.7 MB Splash Math Worksheets for 5th grade (that's the one I reviewed) by StudyPads is robust, satisfying, and intuitive enough, fifth graders will have no problem installing, setting up and using it independent of adult assistance. The start-up steps are clear. Screens are colorful and uncluttered making their purpose easy to understand. The space theme will appeal to most fifth graders, especially with 'space' being a common fifth grade unit. Parents and teachers will be pleased that math skills are aligned with fifth grade Common Core State Standards and include an endless supply of problems on topics like decimals, fractions, dividing by two digit numbers, place values, number sense, multiplication, division, measurement, and age-appropriate Geometry and Algebra. Each topic has between four and twelve worksheets where kids drag and drop shapes, rotate clock hands, pop bubbles and lots more as they solve problems. The app uses an adaptive learning algorithm to determine the child's level and gradually increase the difficulty with the user's skill. To get started, students set up a personal account (up to six per app) with a nickname and an avatar, select a math topic and begin. Worksheets includes problems, feedback, the right answer, and a finger-operated notepad to use to figure out answers. Users get recommendations for areas that need work and points for right answers (enough points and they qualify to play a game). The app tracks progress through the lessons, keeps a report for later viewing, and will even email parents and/or teacher on progress. Progress is tracked by questions answered right/wrong and a visual graph. A feature I haven't seen in any other app is the ability to assign homework. When a student logs on, the app will tell them what worksheets their teacher or parents wants completed during that session. That's a big plus. At $9.99, I thought this might be a bit pricey for the average buyer (why pay when there are so ma
