• Notice similarities and differences between toys, phones and everyday life long ago and now, including settings in traditional stories.

How BrightWorld helps with people, places and the past

Children practise people, places and the past 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.
