Boddle Learning

84 episodes

Boddle Learning is a bank of short, animated math explainers spanning kindergarten through sixth grade, made by the team behind the Boddle math game. Each video takes on a single Common Core skill, from counting by tens and reading a ruler to comparing fractions, telling time, finding area, and writing ratios. An animated host works a real example on screen, often as a follow-along, so students watch the thinking happen instead of only hearing an answer. Because every title maps to one clear standard, a teacher can pull the exact short clip that matches the day's math topic.
