Mattie's Math Games |
Mattie's Math Games is a collection of games designed to teach 3-year-olds to third graders number recognition, counting and number order, addition, subtraction, multiplication and division, all while the child is engaged in fun activities. Thirty-nine different types of math problems are presented in the four game environments. Also included are a fun music-composing game with singing 'Grumps', and a chance to paint Mattie's living room. Problem solving and analytical thinking skills are developed as the child finds his or her way through these very hands-on games. The colorful graphics, voices, sound effects, and background music all add to the highly interactive, very intuitive play. Mattie helps by giving instructions and clues. Incorrect responses are treated humorously, allowing the child a relaxed, pleasant atmosphere in which to learn. | $14.95 |  |
Roxie's Reading Fish |
Roxie's Reading Fish offers an enjoyable 3D animated game environment
in which children easily learn basic, high-frequency words from the
pre-school age to late-second grade level. Additionally, parents and
teachers can record their own words, and create word lists for use
in the game, greatly extending the educational value and the age-level
of the product. <P> In Roxie's Reading Fish, Roxie, a friendly,
animated, talking cat, plays "Go Fish" with a child, but,
instead of asking for a number, asks for a word from a list of over
two hundred basic, high-frequency words, which were chosen with the
aid of reading specialists in education. Roxie gently guides the child
in selecting the correct word card. When a "Go Fish" game
is completed, Roxie then sets up a "memory" game. To play,
the child needs to find pairs of words and patterned tiles. When a
match is made, Roxie will say that word. The words used are all words
from the next reading level. In this way, the child painlessly begins
to learn the next set of words he or she will encounter in the< next
levels of the game. When they reach the next level, they already have
some familiarity with those words, and learn them much more quickly!
Roxie's Reading Fish now incorporates a feature where the parent or
teacher can record their own words, and enter their word lists into
the program with an easy-to-use database. Word lists are easy to enter,
select, modify and delete when no longer needed. With these features,
the child can now learn words with which they are having difficulty,
or words that they would like to learn to read, or words in a book they will be reading, extending the program's life considerably. Roxie's Reading Fish is used in schools and libraries in the U.S. and Europe. Roxie's Reading Fish was selected by HomePC Magazine (Oct, 1996) as a "must have" program, and is the most popular of the early elementary level downloads on ZDNet (www.zdnet.com). Roxie's Reading Fish is a finalist in the 1997 Ziff-Davis Shareware Awards. |
