Reflection #6 Matific
Explore Matific. Write
a review for a local educational blog about the way in which Matific can be
used. Support your ideas with literature.
Matific is a well-structured, interactive and engaging platform
that allows students to explore the world of mathematics through play. The
platform contains a variety of mathematical concepts and lessons that require
students to grasp at key proficiencies such as problem solving, critical thinking and reasoning while allowing them to explore the
concepts at their own pace.

Within the classroom setting Matific is extremely versatile.
Matific has the capabilities of being used as a mental warm-up, developmental
and exploration task or even as a closing task to finish off the lesson.
Overall, I strongly believe you can’t go wrong by allowing your students to learn through play, be highly engaged and learn at their own pace.
