In summary: Timez Attack meets the needs of several different ages – in our house from age six to 14! It is nice to have a math drill resource that is fun as well as challenging. Basically, by paying for Timez Attack, you give your child more opportunity to practice and challenge what they have learned.Some examples are rock tower, ruins with a jungle, volcano, and the machine world. However, your child can practice all the times tables with the free version. The free version only has one world (the dungeon world). As your child is successful in learning the times tables, he/she will advance.Why would I want to pay for Timez Attack? Comparison of the different versions and cost, plus what is included HERE.The paid version gives your child access to more ‘worlds’ and entertainment.There is a free version! You and your child can try it out and use the free version which is what we did to start with.Research page showing test score improvement.a retention component to regularly review the facts.available for both Windows and Mac platforms.I sure can appreciate a program that my age range of children can use! Here’s what my rising 8th grader had to say about the newly improved version, “They made it harder to play (you have to give your answer in less time) but easier to remember the multiplication facts.” Plus, Big Brainz just recently added division! Hmm. I watched as Timez Addition drilled my daughter in 2 + 1 = 3 then 3 – 2 = 1. What impressed me most about this offering is that the game slows down when a child misses a certain problems. At the start, your child practices finding the numbers on the keyboard, chooses a boy or girl player and takes a pre-test to determine skill level. And what better way to practice than with a fun computer game?īut guess what else? Timez Attack now offers addition and subtraction practice, so rising 1st grader got in on the mix as well. Three of my children practice with the Big Brainz game – three different ages/grades. “The most powerful multiplication games ever created.” But now, she’s the one that needs that encouragement in times table memorization and division practice.Įnjoy this video for a quick start overview in a minute and a half: See, we’d tucked it away because there was some space there between our older children and our middle girl. And, wow, how Timez Attack has improved since we first learned about it. It’s one of those resources we turn to when we know we need a little boost in multiplication practice. These fun, multiplication games were recommended to us by my friends and fellow homeschool moms. We’ve enjoyed Timez Attack by the Big Brainz company in our homeschool for several years now. Big Brainz is giving away a deluxe version of Timez Attack multiplication and division, valued at $59.99, to one Curriculum Choice reader – don’t miss it at the end!
