EDUCATIONAL NOTE

iWorldGeography colors match American Montessori Society classroom materials.

iWorldGeography Series blends child-directed-activity design with Geography curriculum used in Montessori Children's House and Lower Elementary classrooms. Concept and visual design is thoughtfully integrated to supplement existing curriculum and classroom materials. The series was inspired by 3-year's observation in Lexington (MA) Montessori School Children's House classrooms where MyWorld, TenSun's desktop-based version of this series, has been used since 2004.

Kaizenpink ,

Not worth the money

I bought this app and would not recommend it based on the following feedback:

Puzzle
-When you drop in the puzzle pieces it should say the name of the province
-When the puzzle piece goes into the correct spot is should play a chime sound

Label:
-It should say the province name of the pin
-When the pin is correctly placed it should play a chime sound

Capital:
-It should say the name of the capital pin
-When the pin is correctly played it should play a chime sound
-The capital of Ontario is Toronto not Ottawa

Question:
-When you select the incorrect province it should prompt you to try again - not just give the correct answer
-By allowing the child to try again they can better learn which province it is for next time

The touch and watch sections are perfect as is.

I think if the items listed above were used to fix this app then it would be really great!

Simple and expensive

$2 would have been more reasonable.
Also, Ottawa is the Capitol of Canada, Toronto is the capitol of Ontario. #oops
