Community reviews for Monster Physics

I highly recommend this app to teach physics principles. I would say that you would probably need to look the app over and then you can ask the students to find examples of certain principles, for example, kinetic or potential energy, or certain types of collisions. If there isn't some structure, then it can just end up being lots and lots of playing.

A fantastic physics simulation with challenges that increase in difficulty. Many will only take a few minutes but there was one that my 9 year old son & I spent approximately 6 hours working out a clumsy, but functional solution. For a while, it seemed downright impossible. But that's the point, this app beckons you to go back & try again. We soon stumbled upon a much more elegant and simpler solution. My students (college age) often lack the tenacity & persistence to stick with a difficult challenge. This will be good practice for young kids to learn that persistence pays off.
