By jungle, temple, ancient ruins to join the fruit ninja in an exciting adventure! Curious (hungry) pigs discovers yourself in a tricky situation, so Shenglang and his friend must find Fruitasia's lost film to save him.
If your students love Fruit Ninja, they'll likely love this app, too, and they'll practice solid math skills along the way. The Truffles story line helps keep kids motivated, but it's the fun mini-games that should really keep kids coming back. There's plenty of gameplay variety: For example, some games require kids to bowl watermelons, while others require them to throw the correct number of bananas at a giant. And of course, many require lots of fruit slicing. By completing those mini-games, kids can learn about addition, subtraction, geometry, multiplication, and number sense. Kids can complete quizzes to assess their learning, which is helpful, but it would be even better if kids could access hints and detailed feedback for incorrect answers during gameplay or during the quizzes. Including just a little more explicit support for kids and teachers would make this an even more valuable learning experience.
Math Master sees young children take control of curious pig Truffles to wind their way through a series of maths-based puzzles, with the familiar fruit-slicing gestures from the original playing a key role.
Set in the beloved and colorful world of Fruit Ninja, Math Master is the perfect companion to classroom learning, teaching Grade 1 math skills to children aged 5 to 7 years old. Keeping with the simple Fruit Ninja gameplay that fans know and love, players slice their way through different math challenges presented in an engaging comic-style format.
Students will master a number of key learning areas along the way, including addition, subtraction, skip counting (multiplication), numbers, sequences and shapes. The objective? To find the Lost Tablets of Fruitasia, rescue Truffles the Pig, and prove that learning can be fun! All challenges are graded, and players will be encouraged to hone their skills in order to unlock extra content for performing well. Progress is also logged directly within the game, allowing parents and teachers to easily track development over time.
In case you haven't heard, I have started working on a fruit ninja clone for the CE! It is written entirely in the C programming language, so it should be very speedy. I know some of you don't follow me on GitHub or Cemetech, so you might like to hear this here as well.
For the curious, my key input is simply the [math] key and everything to the right and below it, all the way down to [enter]. These keys get converted to screen locations which allow you to slice fruit.
Throw a Fruit Ninja style water party!
My sweet boy turned 5 this weekend. Right now he loves all things Ninja, so naturally he wanted a Ninja birthday party. We all love the video game Fruit Ninja, so we thought it would be fun to do a real life version of it, and it turned out to be the perfect party on a hot Summer day.
I did a bunch of research for Ninja parties, and loved the idea for a LIVE Fruit Ninja party, so I showed it to Aiden and he was excited!
To start, we made a big poster for a focal point for the whole party. For the words fruit ninja, I used small neon colored duct tape. It was really easy and I love how the letters look like Ninja style writing! We intentionally left ends cut at a diagonal and we left some longer than others.
Inspiration for the paper plate fruit on the big sign, came from these paper plate bananas. I love how the edge on these paper plates give the fruit a 3 dimensional look. We started with two sizes of the cheap white paper plates.
