What are people saying? 
"Teachley Addimal Adventure is an excellent tool for teaching kids strategies they need to master single-digit addition." - Common Sense Media

“Addimal Adventure is an exciting, new way to teach addition facts! There’s nothing else out there focused on teaching kids strategies.” -Sarah B., 1st grade teacher, NYC

About the game:
The sinister Professor Possum has destroyed the golden city of El Sumado and is building a robot set on destroying the world! Captain Memo and the Addimals have come to save the day, but they can’t do it alone. Help the Addimals win back the golden blocks and restore El Sumado to its former glory!  

Developed by former teachers and experts in children’s cognition and learning, Addimal Adventure is an engaging game that teaches addition. The Addimal characters model effective strategies for solving math facts. Children practice using these strategies during the tool round, while the speed round encourages memorization, providing hints as needed. 

Most addition apps focus on drill with digital worksheets and flashcards. In contrast, our app teaches effective math strategies and scaffolds learning to promote conceptual understanding and fact fluency.

Addimal Adventure is a great tool for teaching different ways to solve problems and for parents to support their children’s learning at home. 

Recommended Grades: K-2, 3-5 (intervention)

Meets Many Common Core, TEKS, and other State Math Standards.

### 3/5 — Extra fees

*2015-10-09*

Decent enough apps that help kids learn addition but don't expect to be able to see why progress your child is making as a to her or parent unless you anty up a ridiculous monthly subscription fee. There is no way to check on your child's progress with math facts unless you pay for their reports. This should be included in the cost of the app. Addition is free but their other apps cost and you can't review any reports unless you pay even more on top of the original app fee.

### 5/5 — Best App By FAR!

*2014-12-05*

We have 1-to-1 iPads for our first graders, and this app is truly the best!  It is motivating, engaging, and teaches the students important math fact skills and the strategies to conquer them!  I hope they come up with phonics and spelling apps too!

### 5/5 — Awesome!

*2014-09-16, version 2.3*

my kid loves it.  thanks for making such a great learning tool available to parents for free!

### 5/5 — Great classroom tools!

*2014-09-12*

Thanks for adding the new classroom accounts! Now my students can play at their own pace and I can keep track of how well they are all doing.

### 3/5 — Can’t figure out how it works

*2014-08-28*

Seems very buggy. It is slow to respond, crashes. Interface is non-intuitive, or else it just isn’t working. Nicely designed, if they can do some upgrades and make it work. My 5 year old just gave up.

### 5/5 — This app is wonderful, amazing, spectacular.

*2014-06-16, version 2.1*

You will love this app. It's a need not a want for your child. Buy it. Buy it. But it.

### 5/5 — Engaging

*2014-06-05, version 2.1*

This is app is very engaging, my 6 year old son played with it for quite some time, trying to fill in his scoreboard. It teaches different methods for counting and has a fun cartoonish theme that holds young minds attention.

### 5/5 — Fantastic app for learning addition strategies

*2014-06-01*

This is such a great app for students to learn addition strategies. It is great for the classroom and easy to use.

### 5/5 — Great thinking made visual

*2014-05-21*

I've taught these same strategies to my second graders, but I've never seen them in an app before. Playing this game sparks some great math talk.

### 5/5 — Technology Coordinator

*2014-04-30*

A great app that is easy to use and has the unusual distinction of saving the students results for later analysis.
