Guide for Teachers and Parents

Congratulations! You have chosen MathShark, the calculator and

electr

onic game that improves math skills.

As a CALCULATOR, MathShark per

forms arithmetic calculations for

home or school. As a LEARNING tool, MathShark provides hundreds

of drill games, enabling students to sharpen their mental math skills—

math per

formed mentally rather than on paper—from memorization

to estimation to mental computation.

MathShark LEARNING is a progressive sequence of problems in seven

skills: addition, subtraction, multiplication, division, decimals,

fractions, and per

cents. There are thousands of problems! Self-

directed and self-motivating, MathShark gives players the confidence

to use mathematics in everyday activities.

MathShark users of all ages and skill levels find that these features

help them sharpen math skills at their own individual pace:

Repeated drill Each SKILL has eight sequential levels. At

each level, ther

e are ten or more game sets—ten problems per

game. At the end of each game, the player can choose to replay

that game to improve timing, go to the next game on that level,

or change to another level or another skill.

Immediate feedback

Different tones and lights tell the

player whether the answer is correct or incorrect. Incorrect

answers are immediately corrected on the screen.

No-fail game format

Incorrect answers are recycled into

the game and repeated. Game play continues until all problems

are answered correctly.

Self-assessment

At the end of each game, a player’s

elapsed time is shown on the screen. The player can try to

improve that time by repeating the game.
