edMe Apps "Rio Math" provides interesting questions about swimming, athletics, weightlifting, and basketball events. We are watching these events just like you are, and writing questions that highlight the most interesting aspects of each competition. We especially highlight the American and international superstars that capture our kids imaginations. We are working furiously to have these questions available minutes after the conclusion of high-profile events.
This app specifically focuses on students in later elementary school. These items focus on the meaning of ratio, adding and subtracting decimals, and answering real-world math problems. These problems are more than realistic--they are exciting and relevant to your child. They capture the key moments of the event that help describe why a competitor won or emphasize the impressive nature of these feats.
These questions may help families find common interests during the Olympic Games in a way that allows everyone to contribute interesting, informative thoughts. If you have half as much fun using this app, as we did in creating it, then you will have a great month of enjoyment!
