How to play Answer Bubbles

  1. Choose your questions and a speed, then press Start game.
  2. Read the question at the top of the board.
  3. Pop the bubble with the answer before it reaches the surface.
  4. A wrong pop, or a right bubble that floats away, costs a shell. The game ends when all three are gone.
  5. Press Questions at any time to choose a different set.

For parents and teachers

This is the same practice as Bingo, recalling a fact rather than working it out, with the clock made visible: the answer has to be found before the bubble rises. The wrong numbers are close to the right one, so guessing by size does not help. Start on Easy with a set your child is learning, and move to Normal or Fast once the score keeps climbing. The best score for each set and speed is kept on this device.
