Very disappointed with the educational value.So many rcade-style activities distract from skill building except for coordination skill and fine motor control. Also not very intuitive software even though it claims to have auto-help.

Jumpstart Adventures 4th Grade: Haunted Island (PC/MAC) Review

Jumpstart Adventures 4th Grade: Haunted Island

My favorite computer game as a kid! My brother got me a copy recently (I'm in college now!) and I still get it out to play when I need a break :)
Great blend of all 4th grade subjects, with the choice of leveling the hardness up or down. Games range from digging up treasure and keeping it away from pirates using geography knowledge, uncovering mummies via history, laying vampires to rest using multiplication and division, and a lot more. However, if your kids are scared of ghosts and witches (hence the "haunted island" name), you may want to check out a cheerier subject matter for a game.
Highly recommended!

Product Description:
Your substitute teacher, Mrs Grunkle, is a witch ??? the ~Halloween type Yesterday, while you were home sick, she took your entire class and turned them into monsters by taking away the items they loved best. Then, she took the entire class to her home on ~Haunted Island and imprisoned their beastly forms in her attic. It's all up to you. Players have to save their classmates from Mrs. Grunkle's machinations by retrieving all the possessions she stole from the children and finding the 25 keys to her beastly house so you can get into the attic and set your friends free. JumpStart Adventures 4th Grade: Haunted Island takes players through an entire year's worth of studies for the fourth grade, including math, spelling, music, logic, geography and more. Also included is a large maze where players may appear if they get too many answers wrong. ~ Lisa Karen Savignano, All Game Guide
