This app helps develop essential number knowledge and subtraction facts through catchy song videos, each in a different style. Combined with school or home-based maths strategy learning this app can play an important, fun part in maths/numeracy development. Knowing maths facts can provide a solid foundation for maths success. These ‘big screen’ apps are designed to be used over time too; as your child starts to tackle new addition problems, the app can support their development. Younger learners may want the +1,+2 while other more advanced learners may want the slightly trickier ones.
