However, her memorization of basic addition and subtraction facts is woefully inadequate. I'm looking for a math drill program that does a good job of drilling simple math facts, without teaching kids to just count in their head. Seems like such a program should have features like: o Control over choice of +, -, *, / o Time limit on data entry, with a new problem given when student doesn't answer on-time during test-drill o Memorization phase where combinations that were not answered, or answered incorrectly, are presented for student to memorize. Does anybody know of such a program for the PC, whether P.D., shareware, or commercial??? Help, please! Thanks.
