Your child presses the number corresponding to the activity he or she wants to play. For this sample activity, press '''2''' for Divisors of 1, 2, 3. (We'll assume that the Speech Synthesizer is attached for this example.)
The next display asks if you want a teaching example or practice exercises. If your child presses 1, a tutorial example is given. Pressing '''2''' goes immediately to the drill exercises. To continue this sample activity, press '''1'''.
The tutorial routine displays a group of boxes with an equal number of objects in each box. The number corresponding to the total number of objects is displayed and then the division word sentence appears. The computer counts the number of boxes and moves that number into position to complete the word sentence. For example, 10 divided by 2 equals 5. Using the symbols + and =, the number sentence ( 10 + 2 = 5) then appears under the word sentence.
After one tutorial example is given, your child is asked if he or she wants to see another one. If your child wants another example, press '''1''' for ''Yes.'' If he or she is ready to go on to the drill, press '''2''' for ''No.'' When your child is finished, press '''BEGIN''' to leave the drill and return to the activity selection list.
