***** 2nd Place for Best Elementary Student App!!! http://bestappever.com/awards/2012/winner/eled TeachMe: 2nd Grade is the fourth installment in the popular TeachMe series of educational apps for the iPhone, iPod touch, and iPad. TeachMe: 2nd Grade teaches six age-appropriate subjects to second grade children: spelling, sight words, long addition, long subtraction, fast addition and fast subtraction. TeachMe: 2nd Grade's unique TeachTech character recognition engine interprets a child's written answers, helping to reinforce writing skills while teaching math and spelling. TeachMe: 2nd Grade keeps children engaged with a unique reward system where children earn coins by playing learning games at the school. They can move around the rest of TeachTown to spend their coins on fun rewards. Children can make fun photos at the Photobooth, collect stretchable shapes at the Shape Store, visit their virtual aquarium at the Fish Store, and decorate different scenes at the Art Store. The simple and intuitive user interface is designed to be child friendly, which allows children to play without help from an adult. An animated teacher (Mimi Mouse) gives verbal instructions and feedback to encourage the child to learn and succeed! In addition, the learning screens are colorful, fun and rotate between six different subjects so children don't get bored. TeachMe: 2nd Grade is the only educational app which reads your child's writing using TeachTech, 24x7digital's writing recognition engine. Children write their answers for math and spelling questions and TeachMe: 2nd Grade reads them using TeachTech. If your child needs help, TeachMe: 2nd grade will show them how to write the correct answer including the proper stroke order. Each child has an achievements screen which motivates and encourages learning by showing progress and levels for each topic. Parents can use this screen to quickly see progress of their child. Parents can select which subjects they want, set different difficulty levels, and even choose specific questions. Parents can also review performance history for each subject to check how their child is doing.

This app follows the US Common Core State Standards and consists of comprehensive math skills essential for GRADE 3 school students. Resources consist of activity books with math problems. Each Math Activity that requires complex solving, consists of a SCRATCH PAD option where the child can freely write on the screen (overlay) to solve the problems in writing if they so desire. Math activities cover all the required grade 3 skills such as decimal numbers, equations, variables, measurement, geometry, understanding fractions including equivalent fractions, operations with fractions, logical reasoning, numbers up to thousands, place value, estimation, rounding, probability, statistics, Roman Numerals, data, graphs, properties and importance of parenthesis, time, and addition, subtraction, multiplication, and division expertise concepts.

The Practice Mode is not scored. At the end of the practice mode, the child can try again with a new set of problems. 2) Test Mode: The Test Mode is scored and does not prompt the child during their attempt to solve the problem.
