A NOTE TO PARENTS

Children need strong math skills to solve today's and tomorrow's problems. The Milliken Math Sequences, along with the Tl Home Computer, can help your child meet these challenges. The series allows children to work at their own pace and on the skill level at which they need practice. Children find that learning with the computer is fun, challenging, and motivating. The computer never tires of repetition or loses patience - it's like having a private math tutor!

The Milliken Math Sequences, developed for Texas Instruments by Milliken Publishing Company, consists of twelve Solid State Cartridges. Each cartridge concentrates on a different skill area in mathematics, such as addition, subtraction, decimals, or fractions. By providing different levels of difficulty, the series is suitable for children from the kindergarten age through grade eight.

The Addition cartridge is divided into 60 levels of difficulty, covering material generally taught in kindergarten through grade four. The program provides practice in adding whole numbers (numbers with no fractional part). Children begin adding one-digit numbers and advance level by level until they add four-digit numbers. Problems are presented both vertically and horizontally. At more difficult levels (levels 26-60), children practice "regrouping" ("carrying") numbers from one column to another.
