Apps to Help Kids Boost Math and Language Skills
Math Quiz Game Show
Lakeshore Learning Materials has launched four new apps based on its Math Quiz Game Show and Language Adventures Quiz Game Show interactive software titles.
Available for free from the Apple App Store through March 11, 2013, Lakeshore’s new apps offer children all the exciting sights and sounds of a real TV game show—while teaching essential math and language skills.
Complete with a lively host and amusing quiz show sound effects, Lakeshore’s new apps put children right in the contestant’s role as they compete to earn points and claim the ultimate high score.
There is even an optional countdown timer to add extra challenge to the fun. Users can play in single or multiplayer modes, and use audio assistance to help them read questions and answers.
