Finger Numbers vs Hands

Finger Numbers is a motivating learning app that builds rapid quantity recognition (quasi‑simultaneous subitizing) and a robust sense of number and operations for early math. This release is a complete technical rebuild with expanded content—designed for children, parents, and teachers. What children practice: - Recognizing quantities at a glance and matching them with finger touches - Automating number decompositions, complements to 10, and strategies like the “Power of 5” - Moving fluently between representations (fingers, dots, mixed) Game and practice modes: - Basics: Fingers, Dots, Mixed - Pattern Recognition: structured arrangements - Calculation Strategies: Power of 5, complements to 10, How many are missing?, decompositions - Two Hands: cooperative/competitive split‑screen number decomposition - Jump and Run: an action mini‑game controlled by finger numbers Adapt to each learner: - Flexible number range from 3 to 10 fingers (start with 3-5 Fingers for learning the input) - Time pressure can be enabled/disabled as needed - Visual aids and flash‑view controls - Multi‑user profiles with individual progress; Guest mode without recording For teachers - Diagnostic reports with solution times, success rates, and strategy insights - Protected area to review learning progress - AI‑powered summaries with didactic guidance Note: On iPad, system gestures (e.g., 4–5‑finger gestures) may interfere with multi‑finger input. Consider disabling multitasking gestures in system settings if needed. Languages: German, English, Spanish, French, Japanese, Chinese (Simplified)

Hands-On Math: Geoboard creates a virtual geoboard on your iPad and includes activities for a variety of math topics. The app purchase includes an instructor's guide with hands-on activities for elementary and middle school age students. This free iBook provides teachers with lots of activities and lesson ideas that are designed to be used with the app. A simple tap downloads the extensive teacher's guide and installs it in iBooks. The app simulates the use of a popular math manipulative used to teach basic geometry and other math concepts. It is perfect for elementary and middle school classrooms. Our Geoboard is one of the best ways to help students explore and discover geometry. Students draw line segments, rectangles or circles on a 5x5 pegboard. As they draw geometric feedback is reported on a note card helping students better understand length, perimeter, and area. Using Hands-On Math Geooard students can develop the following important mathematical concepts: Properties of Shapes Composing and Decomposing Plane Figures Measurement Naming Shapes and Parts of a Circle Symmetry Drawing and Analyzing Two-Dimensional Shapes Congruence and Similarity Naming and Recognizing Basic Shapes Length, Area, Perimeter, Circumference, Radius and Diameter Coordinate Geometry
