About

Help Suri the meerkat quartermaster share base-ten blocks into equal bins. Grade 4 students split hundreds, tens and ones into equal groups, trade a hundred for 10 tens or a ten for 10 ones when there aren't enough to go around, and find quotients like 104 ÷ 8 and 156 ÷ 6. Every direction is narrated, and each wrong answer gets a spoken hint before the next try.
