TBoard vs Scratch Math!

TBoard is an AAC communication board with lessons—a typing-first AAC app for iPad. Nonspeaking children and adults point to letters, words, or pictures on a board that speaks—the board they already use, photographed and turned into keys; a board you build yourself; or an apraxia-friendly letterboard for spelling—and the people beside them get daily lessons, worksheets, and a gradebook on the same tablet. The full landscape AAC experience—letterboards, custom boards, lessons, worksheets, Practice, and Stats—runs on iPad and iPhone. Invited communication partners use Messaging Lite to stay connected with a speller's circle. TBoard carries the mechanics of a session—each step, the spelling, the board swaps and resets—so parents, family members, and practitioners can stay focused on the person, not the process. COMMUNICATE - The full 26-letter board, 3-stencil, QWERTY, and number layouts—big, steady keys designed for communicators with apraxia or motor differences. - Choose how the board responds: On Touch registers a key the moment a finger lands, visual, spoken, or haptic feedback confirms every selection, and Tap Guard ignores accidental double-taps. - Make the board you already use speak: photograph a printed core board, a picture board, or a paper letterboard and the photo itself becomes a board. Frame it, check the keys it read, fix a word or add a key, and every cell says its word when pressed. - Or build your own in the Board Builder with icons, labels, and your own photos—your layout, colors, and key sizes. - Speak letters, words, or completed thoughts aloud with text-to-speech, including Personal Voice on supported Apple devices. LEARN AND PRACTICE - Three new lessons every day—one per difficulty tier, formatted the way a spelling session flows. Read together, then answer questions, spelling, and math on the board; every answer is checked in real time as it's spelled, and the board can swap and reset for you. - My Lessons holds three kinds of work: Motor Lessons spelled on the board, Practice Worksheets with try-again support, and Graded Worksheets that land in the gradebook. Nine answer types—multiple choice, select all that apply, true or false, answer on the board, number, matching, ordering, open answer, and spelling—in the order you wrote them. - Build a worksheet by hand, or photograph one and highlight it—the passage, each question, its answer—and it plays as a lesson. Import from a photo, a PDF, or a file; text recognition stays on your device, and you review everything before saving. - A gradebook a teacher will recognize: one row per attempt, full, half, or no credit on written answers, notes, and an exportable report. The answer key stays hidden from the student unless you switch it on. - Warm up with Practice—short rounds that keep moving on their own and add help when the typing gets hard. - Progress you can trust: first-try answers, hints, retries, and per-letter accuracy. STAY CONNECTED - Invite trusted family members and practitioners into a private messaging circle. - No public profiles, no feeds, no stranger discovery. TRY IT FREE, THEN BUY IT ONCE Try everything free for 7 days. Then one purchase unlocks TBoard for good—nothing renews, nothing to cancel. One purchase covers every communicator profile in a household and restores on any device signed in with the same Apple Account. Nothing is deleted while the app is locked. PRIVACY BY DESIGN TBoard has no ads and does not track you across apps or websites. Diagnostics are off until you opt in. Photos and documents you import stay on your device—only the lesson text you approve is saved to your account. Signed-in profile data is backed up so it can be restored, and you can delete your account and its data from inside the app. TBoard is a communication and educational tool. It is not a medical device or a substitute for professional care or speech therapy. Terms of Use: https://www.apple.com/legal/internet-services/itunes/dev/stdeula/

Scratch Math is a hands-on learning app built around how students actually solve math problems. Work through generated problems using a built-in scratch pad—just like working on paper, but without switching apps or losing focus. Practice arithmetic, explore fractions visually, and build algebra skills through interactive activities. Designed for repetition, clarity, visual learning, and confidence. PRACTICE ACTIVITIES Choose a practice card and begin a focused 10-question round. Every card includes a clear preview of the activity. - Addition - Subtraction - Multiplication - Long division - Fraction addition - Fraction subtraction - Fraction multiplication - Decimal practice - Mixed practice Decimal Practice combines addition, subtraction, multiplication, and division in every round. Choose Easy, Medium, or Hard, enter answers using the appropriate decimal separator, and open free technique-based hints when needed. SOLVE THE WAY YOU THINK - Built-in scratch work directly on each problem - Fullscreen scratch mode for more working space - Draw, carry, borrow, and cross out naturally - Pan, zoom, recenter, and clear your scratch work - Familiar worksheet-style problem layouts - Custom keypads for whole numbers, fractions, and decimals Scratch Math is not simply a calculator. It is a focused digital worksheet made for active practice. ALGEBRA PLAYGROUND Build algebra understanding through five interactive activities: - Balance Equations — keep both sides balanced while solving - Expression Tiles — group like terms and simplify expressions - Equation Stepper — choose valid steps and follow the equation - Function Machine — identify rules and complete input-output tables - Coordinate Graph — plot points and turn tables into graphs Algebra activities use generated 10-problem rounds, multiple difficulty levels, visual models, guided explanations, and progress tracking. VISUAL FRACTION PLAYGROUND Explore fractions in a separate hands-on area with animated activity cards and visual models. - Explore Fractions — connect fractions, decimals, and percentages - Fraction Bars — compare values and discover equivalents - Build Fraction — create the requested fraction - Fraction Detective — identify fractions shown by visual models - Equivalent Fractions — find values representing the same amount - Fraction Compare — choose less than, equal to, or greater than Scored fraction activities finish with a clear summary and options to continue practicing or return to the activity hub. LEARN STEP BY STEP - Earn credits by solving problems correctly - Spend credits to unlock complete worked solutions - Use free operation-specific hints during Decimal Practice - Replay explanations with clear, child-friendly steps - Review every answer after each Practice round - See correct, incorrect, and assisted results separately PROGRESS THAT MATTERS - Track solved problems, accuracy, streaks, and perfect rounds - Follow progress across individual Practice modes - Record progress for Fraction and Algebra activities - Unlock badges as skills improve - Earn dedicated Decimal, Fraction, and Algebra badges - See newly earned badges at the end of supported rounds - Keep separate progress for up to four local learner profiles BUILT FOR FOCUS - Offline-first learning - No account required - Progress stored locally on your device - Reduced Motion support - Responsive layouts for phones and tablets - Language selection for English, Spanish, French, Thai, and Arabic Scratch Math helps students practice, understand, and improve—one problem, one step, and one round at a time.
