How BrightWorld helps with commas
Children practise commas at Easy, Medium or Hard, in mixed quizzes, in the Answer Run game and inside story missions. If they get stuck, they get a hint and a worked example; if they’re flying, the questions get harder. Parents see how they’re doing in the parent area.
