Alignment of Numbers Challenge Software to K-12 Grade Levels

Numbers Challenge, the math challenge game for the digital generation, sharpens students' math skills within a game format where strategy counts. Students decide which operation to use, (addition, subtraction, multiplication or division) in what order, against a ticking clock, to achieve the desired solution. Numbers Challenge develops students' math fluency and positions them for success with higher-level mathematics. More than a drill of basic math facts-Numbers Challenge capitalizes on students' desire for interactive learning environments. A Wizard produces possible solutions encouraging mathematical discussions and providing a springboard for teachable moments. Teacher reports target areas for further instruction and reinforcement.

Numbers Challenge creators, IT professionals and parents of school-aged children, saw the need for strong mathematical skills for their children in school and for potential employees for their firm. They created Numbers Challenge, a single program for learners from age six to adult. Based on sound educational theory and aligned to mathematics standards, Numbers Challenge can be played individually or collaboratively in practice or advancement mode. Students can engage in fast-paced competition over a network or via the Internet.

Numbers Challenge uses the proven strategy of an engaging, relevant, game-like environment with instant feedback and recognition, to develop skills and confidence that last a lifetime
