A hand for grown-ups

Before you start
Have a few small objects to hand — buttons, blocks, raisins. Counting real things makes the numbers mean something.
While they work
Let them touch each thing as they count it. Pointing and counting together is how the one-number-per-object idea sticks.
Afterwards
Count something together afterwards — the stairs on the way up, the forks at dinner. It shows counting is useful, not just a worksheet.
Watch out for
Counting too fast and skipping objects, or counting one twice. Slow, one-touch-per-object counting fixes this on its own.
Away from the screen
Count everything: steps to the door, peas on the plate, red cars on a walk. No equipment needed.

How to play

  1. A question appears on screen

    A maths question is shown in large text at the centre of the play area. A timer bar begins counting down from 60 seconds.

  2. Choose the correct answer

    Answer options are shown as large buttons. Tap or click the correct option. Any input method works — touch, mouse or keyboard.

  3. Build your streak

    Each consecutive correct answer increases your streak. A longer streak lights up the flame icon and adds a bonus multiplier to the XP you earn for the level.

  4. Finish the level

    Each level has 5 questions. Complete them to earn the full level reward (+10 XP, plus up to +10 XP for a perfect run). Progress is saved locally and shown on the Parent Dashboard.
