PLAYER’S GUIDE INTRODUCTION

Congratulations! You have chosen Math Whiz, the calculator and

electronic game that improves math skills. Math Whiz has three

modes—DRILL, CALCULATOR, and CHALLENGE.

Math Whiz

DRILL is a progressive sequence of problems in four skills:

addition, subtraction, multiplication, and division. There are

thousands of problems! Self-directed and self-motivating, Math Whiz

Drill gives players the confidence to use mathematics in everyday

activities. Math Whiz 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, there are ten or more games—ten problems per game. At

the end of each game, the player can choose to replay that game

to improve timing or change to another level or another skill.

➤ Immediate Feedback - Different tones and happy faces or sad

faces tell the player whether the answer is correct or incorrect.

➤ 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.
