Basic Math Facts!
Yes, every child has to learn them. Somehow.
How about in a way that's fun?
1Minute4Math will help you teach your children.
Would you like to help your children learn to add, subtract, multiply, and divide. This iPad app helps you do exactly that. You can practice with them and then test your basic math skills together.
On the "Practice Page" you can learn and explore, spending as much time as you like.
On the "Test Page," you get to race the clock!
How many correct answers can you give in one minute?
Note to Parents and Teachers: The strength of this approach is that because it only takes one minute, and there is a challenge associated with seeing how many problems you can answer correctly, there is a natural interest in trying again. That's one of the secrets… doing it again… and again.
The other strength is that this approach is "all math." (There are no other game-playing elements like driving around curves, or dodging falling objects, or jumping over barriers.)
Just math.
And one minute... to see what you can do.

The Home page has the instructions. You can read them on the app, or you can read them here.
Keeping Track of Your Progress
If you would like to keep track of your child's progress, we have a free downloadable page with rows and columns to keep track of the name, the date, the operator (+, -, x, ÷), the time for the test, and what score was received. You can download the page here and print it whenever you need a new one.
Have Fun Learning!
