Counting for First Graders is fairy-tale maths for children in their first year of school. Kids really count โ€“ potions, swords, crowns, gingerbread men and other magical things โ€“ and drag the right number card into place. Everything is big, colourful and spoken aloud, so no reading is needed. WHAT CHILDREN LEARN โ€ข Addition up to 20 โ€“ first with pictures, then in groups of five, then just numbers โ€ข Subtraction up to 20 โ€“ things fly or roll away, and kids count what is left โ€ข Comparing numbers โ€“ greater than, less than, equal to โ€ข Crossing ten, step by step, in five levels DRAGON DUEL A dragon is guarding his treasure. Every right answer wins a coin โ€“ but hurry, time is running out and the dragon is getting grumpier! At the end of the round he blows a funny burst of fire and hides what is left. The coins stay with your child and the treasure chest fills up round after round. HELP THAT TEACHES โ€ข A hint bubble with an arrow shows where the card goes โ€ข Finger counting โ€“ two hands to tap and count on โ€ข After a mistake, the app helps count the pictures โ€“ every problem ends in success ADAPTS TO YOUR CHILD The difficulty adjusts automatically. Problems are generated, so children can practise endlessly. FOR PARENTS โ€ข Progress overview, charts and "still tricky" problems โ€ข Settings for voice, sounds, music, dragon timer and difficulty โ€ข No ads, no accounts, no data collection โ€“ everything stays on the device Available in English and Czech.
