Multiplication is the foundation of many higher-level math topics. Your child’s ability to master multiplication facts can dramatically improve his or her current and future academic success. This software allows you to set up a series of tests that can be varied by making the problems sequential or random and by setting time limits for completion. The scores are stored to help identify weak areas. The test history shows test completion status, number of problems solved, time elapsed, and number of correct answers. The more tests your child takes, the more you know what to include in the next test. For instance, if a child consistently misses multiplication of 8s, then the tests can be set to concentrate on 8s and to adjust the completion time. Students will love the challenge of beating their own time and adding new problems to their tests. The following elements are built into the software to ensure that users can meet specific math goals: Customized tests, Variable time settings, Random or sequential order of math facts, Independent practice, Games, such as Multiplication Tic-Tac-Toe, to reinforce memorization, Availability of detailed progress reports. Children build confidence as speed and accuracy improve.
