Learning Benefits for Your Child - Addition helps your child understand the concept
of adding numbers to obtain a sum, or the whole amount. By understanding this
concept, your child will begin to apply his or her knowledge by solving problems.
ACTIVITY INSTRUCTIONS:
1. Slide the activity selector to “Addition.” You will hear a
short tune and a friendly voice will say “Pick a level.” In
this activity, all answers need to be inputted from right
to left.
2. In Level 1, the LCD screen will display square animations to
represent an equation.
3. Next, a numeric equation that represents the squares
previously shown will be displayed. The unit will say “Input
your answer.”
4. If you answer correctly, you will hear “You’ve got it!” You
will then advance to the next question. If you answer
incorrectly, you will hear “Oops, try again!” The square
animations will be shown on the LCD screen and you will
be able to enter your answer again. If you answer
incorrectly on your third try, you will hear an incorrect
sound effect followed by “This is the answer.” The answer
will also be repeated.
5. In Levels 2 and 3, you will not be given the square
animations, only the numeric equations to solve.
