Have you ever seen such a crazy factory? This fun factory brings whimsical fun to addition facts practice.

How does it work? Simply select a number from 1 to 10 and watch the factory get to work. After beeping, flashing, and honking, the factory will produce a set of red and yellow counters. Plus, you’ll see an addition equation that needs to be filled in. Sort and rearrange the counters by clicking and dragging them. Finally, fill in the equation by clicking and dragging numbers to the empty spaces. The game will help students along the way by not allowing incorrect numbers to be placed in the equation. When the correct equation is achieved, students get positive feedback.

During this process, the concept of addends is reinforced. Students can use one addend to represent the yellow counters and the other to represent the red counters. The sum is represented by all of the counters together. Thanks to the counters, each equation is modeled, giving students a concrete understanding of addition.

It can be tricky to evaluate students’ knowledge of basic math operations. Sometimes, students copy each other’s answers. Or, some students are at different levels of mastery than others. Our math tests make it easy to meet each student where they are and evaluate their progress.

To get started, choose the type of operation you want to test and the range of numbers you’d like to use in the operations. For example, to test basic times tables, choose “Multiplication” and “1 to 9”. Selecting “1-19” will involve multiplying two-digit numbers. Then, a unique set of 16 problems are displayed on the screen. Students select each problem and choose the correct answer from four possible answers. When they’re ready, they select “done” and see their test results. Any wrong answers will be highlighted in white, and students can click on the problem to see the correct answer.

As students learn more, you can slowly give them harder and harder assessments and track their progress. Plus, students can complete the tests on their own as practice!
