Aqua 101

An important skill developed in early math learning is a child’s ability to use basic facts in routine math assignments and daily living experiences. According to the 2008 final report of the National Mathematics Advisory Panel, “Students who develop immediate recall of arithmetic facts free the ‘working memory’ for solving more complex problems.” For most children, the key to learning the basic facts is practice -- and it’s much easier to get kids to practice when that practice is fun!

The AQUA series of Apps was designed to engage children in practice that will lead to the mastery of basic facts and improved computational skills. The games are presented in a positive, challenging, and enjoyable format. The more they play… the more they learn…the more they learn the more confident and competent they will become as mathematicians.
