MathFactsTimer vs GO School

This is a simple rapid-fire math drill with a two-minute timer. The problem types are addition, subtraction, multiplication and division, each with 3 levels of difficulty. At the end of two minutes, the number of correct and incorrect answers is displayed, along with the best-correct thus far. If the number of correct answers is greater than 0, a ballon animation is played. If a new record is set, a larger balloon rises, which can be popped. The app is geared to 4th or 5th graders, but can be used by younger children for level 1. On a settings page (for adults but with no restrictions) children may be added by name and assigned a level 1 - 3. The name, level, chosen operation and 12 best-correct values (4 operations, 3 levels) are stored on your device for future sessions. There is no sound. The app is free, and there are no ads. No Wi-Fi or cell signal is required.

GO School keeps Gospel Outreach Olympia families and staff on the same page, every school day. Parents and guardians see the day that matters to them: which classes each child has, what homework is due, and any note from a teacher. Tick homework off as it gets done. Get a heads up before a quiz or test. Teachers get their own teaching schedule, class rosters, attendance, and a gradebook, plus a simple way to post homework and send a note home. Notes to families are reviewed by the principal before they go out. The principal sees the whole school: one queue for approving homework, announcements, and notes, plus rosters, families, staff accounts, and the master schedule. FOR FAMILIES - Every child's daily schedule in one place - Homework with due dates and a checklist - Announcements pinned to the top of the day - Notes with your child's teachers - A heads up before quizzes and tests FOR TEACHERS - Your teaching schedule, by day or by week - Class rosters and attendance - Gradebook, with the option to share work with parents - Post homework, including work that repeats weekly - Ask for a substitute and see who can cover FOR THE OFFICE - One approval queue for homework, announcements, and notes - Students, families, and staff accounts - The full school schedule with rooms and teachers - A daily copy and printing list for the front desk GO School is private to our school. Accounts are created by invitation from the school office, and what each person sees depends on their role. There is no advertising and no tracking.
