ADDITION is a smart math app that teaches children how to add multi-digit numbers together. It monitors what the student knows and where they still need practice. It teaches step-by-step how to add small numbers and then progresses to multi-carry addition. ADDITION is encouragement-based providing positive reinforcement for the student's effort both visually and auditorily. The student, parents, and teachers can all quickly see where the student needs more practice in a color-coded format. Go from simple math facts like 0+1=1 to more difficult equations such as 345+789, with the app showing you the correct answer if you make a mistake. Full customization is possible including choosing the specific digit combinations you want to review or practice. Excellent for beginners just learning addition or a quick review for slightly older students. Students practice writing numbers too. AI converts the student's handwritten numbers into digits. Single-digit addition is free. Multi-digit addition with carrying along with custom colors, specific numbers to learn, different character voices, and background music requires an in-app purchase. FEATURES ► Simple and visually appealing ► Make it as easy or hard as you want + 1-3 digit numbers + without carries + with carries + only practice certain digits or all of them ► Step-by-step instructions if a student wants + forces precise digit order into the correct fields + makes it impossible to move on with a wrong digit + with visual instructions for each entry ► Animated character with encouragement + completely optional for older students + 3 different voices ► Complete customization + specific numbers included or excluded + color design of screens + option to show the correct answer in case of an error + choices of optional background music + sounds/vibrations on right/wrong answers + moves to the next problem if the correct answer is input ► Intelligent + Remembers mistakes and helps practice for mastery ► AI-based handwriting Recognition + write the answers + great for practicing handwriting ► Feedback / Monitoring + Positive/Negative sound reinforcement + Summary of progress in both table and graph form + Easy for student/parent/teacher to monitor progress ► NO ADS, ALL FEATURES ENABLED TERMS & CONDITIONS: http://www.programisprime.com/additionterms.html PRIVACY POLICY: http://www.programisprime.com/additionprivacy.html WE LOVE FEEDBACK We appreciate your feedback.
