AboutNumbers is an early math application aimed at dealing with counting, sets, numbers and calculating in the number domain up to 10. An important feature throughout the entire applications is the structured representation of sets (2 lines and 5 columns) to facilitate non-counting strategies of recognizing sets, the understanding of the relation among numbers and the notion of numbers in general. AboutNumbers for iPad is available in 2 versions: - AboutNumbers: Only a limited number of exercises can be used. An In-App Purchase is required to use all exercises. - AboutNumbers PRO: All exercises can be used without limitation. The application is designed for pre-school and elementary school children with or without impairments, for people with math deficiencies, as well as young people and adults with learning disabilities. The application contains a wide number of increasingly complex exercises. Each exercise is aimed to further a specific skill (e.g. counting or calculating). Completed exercises are recorded by the application to document the learning progress. To enable the use of this application with several people, a user manager is offered. Individual settings and results will be saved and can be loaded quickly. The exercises can be operated by alternative input devices such as external switches or eye tracking. Objectives: Practice counting and calculating in the number domain up to 10 Train non-counting strategies of recognizing sets Areas of application: Early Intervention Children and adults with learning disabilities Dyscalculia

Need to practice the four basic arithmetic operations? Need to practice creating number sentences with three numerals? Need to practice using 3 addends for sums to 20? Need to practice mixed operation number sentences with totals to 99? In each turn players are given four numerals. Each player has five turns. Use three of the four numerals and the basic arithmetic operations (+, -, x, Γ·) to form an equation that equals any empty square (or one occupied by your opponent) on the game grid. The total for each number sentence is computed using standard order of operations.... multiply and divide (left to right) then add and subtract (left to right). Drag that total to the corresponding grid square. Your accumulated point total for each match is updated after each term and is the total of all the grid squares you occupy plus any BONUS points earned. You may not use an answer grid square you occupy, but you can βstealβ your opponentβs square. In that case, your score increases and your opponentβs score decreases by the same amount. Grid size options include 20, 25, or 50 squares. The numeric range for the grids includes 14 options: 1-20; 11-30; 1-25; 15-29; 1-50; 50-99 and others.
