Full Description

Each of the 20+ activities consist of a graded sequence of 20 to 40 simply presented multiple-choice questions. Correct answers result in a short animated sequence with music and spoken reinforcement while a fun ‘monkey story’ game adds to the motivation.

Full speech support and switch access options provide access to learning by almost all students and simple performance reporting allows you to record student progress. These activities were designed by a teacher and Maths ICT Coordinator with over 20 years experience in primary and special schools.

The activities are structured using a positive reinforcement strategy without the need for intrusive on-screen help.

Early Number

Key Stage 1 Shape, Space & Measure

Includes 21 activities covering matching and recognition of geometric 2D and 3D shapes, sequencing shapes, counting sides, nets, weight, length, capacity, and planes and symmetry. Directly supports all areas of the NNS at KS1.

Number 0 to 5

This has 21 graded activities covering comparison of quantity, counting sets of objects, counting on (rote counting), counting back, numeral recognition and matching sets to numerals. They map directly to the Foundation Stage targets and P-Level descriptors.
