LEARN - Students learn their addition facts by doing 3 exercises and a test for each group of 10 number facts based on a number they select 0 through 9.

--- Exercise #1 - 10 cards with answer in sequential order

--- Exercise #2 - 10 cards with answer in random order

--- Exercise #3 - 10 cards WITHOUT answer in random order (2nd tap reveals answer)

--- Exercise #4 - 10 cards in random order where the student enters the answer to each step in the problem with a single tap. The student knows whether the answer is correct or not by the visual feedback provided by the colors of the answer entry box. Incorrect answers or typos must be immediately corrected by the student before they can proceed to the next step of the problem.

TEST - Allows students to create a custom test similar to the test described above. Students select some combination of the digits 0 through 9 from a "Select a Number" screen. Each number selected generates a unique group of 10 flashcards which will be tested. This gives the students the ability to create a customized test and eliminate facts they already know.

MISSING NUMBERS - In this mode, students must work "backward" from the answer to fill in a missing number in the equation. This mode is meant to be used ONLY after the student has learned ALL of their addition facts. This test generates a random set of 100 equations with missing numbers which takes a student about 2 minutes to complete.
