My Take

Legends of Learning is great way to support learning and a terrific tool to use in your class. This product helps add gaming to your class room. Most students are motivated to complete each game or level. They also improve their learning while playing.
Legends of Learning has many different game types and some games are using rote memory and others you play as a character.

Legends of Learning contains hundreds of games. The solar system unit has 8 different games to help support learning.
Legends of Learning uses a rigorous content quality testing process that includes teachers, external curriculum experts, and our internal academic team. Each group of games is reviewed to match the content standard, whether it is based on NGSS or specific state standards. Stated from their website.

You can read reviews and ratings from students and teachers about the game that you might be exploring. You can also try each game out before assigning to students.

Website states that they will be adding 3-5 content soon.

How I Use It

I have used Legends of Learning to introduce a concept and to support a concept. I have also used the game so students could collect notes from the games to add to our interactive notebooks. I love that students can learn by playing a game. This adds a level of gaming to my classroom. One game "Journey to the Sea" you play as an ice cube and you have to change "states" in order to maneuver through maze. This is a great game to help introduce States of Matter.

Entertaining, Engaging, and Educational

I think Legends of Learning is really fun and can be a great resource for children to practice what they've learned through these games. There are many different kinds of games available that cover many different topics which is perfect for a gen ed teacher. The kids have to answer a couple of questions before moving on the game, perfect for teachers to get a read on how much the students understand.

Educational problems in the site are good in the different grade levels offered. Game could be hard to navigate for younger students

This is a good resource for teaching because of the aesthetic of the game that could engage students and the quality of the math problems. I like the characters and how the game looks visually. I don't like how complicated it is to get around and move and that could take from the enjoyment students have with it, especially younger ones.

Legends of Learning: Fun Curriculum Reinforcement for Math and Science

Legends of Learning offers a wide range of games covering math and science content, making it a valuable resource for reinforcing knowledge. The platform is visually appealing and includes a motivating currency system to keep students engaged. However, the games lean more towards gamification rather than true game-based learning, which means the content application can be shallow at times.
