App includes: Number Sets 1-20 in Addition, Subtraction, Multiplication and Division; both practice and test formats allow students to learn, drill, and challenge themselves to know their arithmetic computations.
Students can instantly save, review and share their math Test Results with their teachers, tutors, parents and trusted friends via text message or email, to track their progress.
This app enables teachers to more easily differentiate their instruction based on the individual needs of their students. Challenge the advanced students while getting stuggling students up to speed.

MyMathCards puts 400 flashcards in the palm of your hand.
This game and "education utility" was co-designed with 5th grade Math teacher and PAST Foundation Fellow, Steve Lewis (aka Mathomaticus). The purpose: to help students across the country improve their basic and advanced addition, subtraction, multiplication and division skills.
Experts agree that students need to have mastered their basic math skills by 7th grade or their future success in math becomes highly problematic.
This app can help students to return to math and science classes prepared for higher order problem-solving rather than being bogged down with basic practicing and drilling.
This app can also help teachers to engage, unify and guide their classrooms in stimulating and participatory project-based play, which will serve to develop their students' application of math in everyday, practical life skills.
This app is aligned with the Common Core Mathematics Standards to help each student obtain mastery in the four basic arithmetic operations. These skills can lead to an easier road to enhance and develop their mathematical language.
As parents and teachers, our job is to properly share how the world works. To do this, as a culture and community, we need to provide every child with the right digital tools to excel and create a foundation for success.
