As young children are starting to make sense of numbers and operations, they should be free to solve mathematical situations in a way that makes sense to them. This application follows new Common Core State Standards for both mathematical practices as well as grade-level standards.
This application allows young mathematicians to use multiple strategies to arrive at a correct answer. By listening to other children solve a problem and then using that method for themselves, children will develop more efficient and flexible problem solving strategies.
See CCSS 1.OA.1. The focus of this application is addition or combining problems with the result unknown.
