My 1st grade daughter has been well-taught how to count. 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.

Pete
