Everything unlocked. One price. Built for classrooms. FlashToPass Scholastic Math is the complete school edition of FlashToPass, the proven math flash card app. Version 3.0 is a complete rebuild. It adds live whole-class competitions, camera grading for printed worksheets, voice answers, and an Apple Watch app, and the Mac app is now included with your purchase. No ads. No in-app purchases. No subscriptions. No accounts. No tracking. Perfect for schools, classrooms, and homeschool. - Run the Whole Class - Host a live competition from one device and let the room join in. Everyone races the same cards, and you choose the win condition: beat the class average, or beat everyone. Students can join from the free FlashToPass app, so a single teacher device can run the activity. - Paper, Graded by Camera - Print practice sheets or cut-out flash cards for any operation and number range, on US Letter or A4, with an answer key for fast grading and name and score lines already on the page. Nothing you print carries a watermark. When the finished sheet comes back, point the camera at it. FlashToPass reads the QR code, recognizes the handwriting, and grades it on the device, with nothing uploaded. - Practice Every Way - Students type on a big keypad or say their answers out loud, in 12 languages. The app can read each problem aloud, practice picks up where the student left off, and a full practice session runs on Apple Watch. - Why Master Math Facts? - Mastery of math facts is essential for success in math. When students know their math facts quickly and accurately, they can focus on learning new concepts instead of struggling with basic calculations. Building strong math fact skills improves confidence, speed, and long-term academic success. - Built for the Classroom - The Scholastic edition is tailored for use in schools. Every feature is included up front, so it works with institutional purchasing (Apple School Manager and volume purchase) and never shows students a paywall, ad, or account screen. - Key Features - - NEW! Teacher-vs-class live competitions with selectable win conditions. - NEW! Scan & Grade: camera grading for printed worksheets. - NEW! Voice answers in 12 languages, plus a read-aloud mode. - NEW!
