The app is great for kids with learning challenges.

Along with learning, there are practice modules for each of these sections to reinforce what they have learnt.

This app is divided into the following 5 learning and 5 practice units.
+ Earth Science Part 1
+ Matter
+ Space Science
+ Earth Science Part 2
+ Scientific Enquiry
