Case Study 3

Interactive iPad Concept for 3rd & 4th Graders: Yellow Brick Math is an interactive iPad concept designed to reduce math anxiety for 3rd and 4th graders transitioning from concrete counting to abstract mental models. By leveraging the narrative world of The Wizard of Oz, the app transforms traditional number lines into a spatial journey—using Yellow Bricks for positive movement (addition) and Poppy Fields for reverse movement (subtraction/negative numbers).
