About Mathe-Trainer
Mental arithmetic practice on a tablet, for children from their first school
year. The app measures the time to the correct answer and turns it into a
learning curve and leaderboards, where several children on the same device
compete with each other.
<b>The interface is in German only.</b>
It runs entirely offline. No account, no ads, no analytics and no internet
permission - the app cannot send anything anywhere.
<b>76 lessons in nine groups</b>
Counting and comparing pictures for the youngest, then addition and
subtraction up to 10, 20, 100 and 1000 - with and without carrying - the
times tables forwards and backwards, division with and without a remainder,
order of operations, telling the time and handling money.
<b>Stars for care, lightning bolts for speed</b>
Two separate axes on purpose. Stars follow the error rate, bolts the time per
task. A child who works carefully earns the stars even slowly.
<b>What parents can set</b>
Behind a PIN: which groups a child is offered at all, how long they may
practise in one stretch and per day, how many runs of one lesson still count
towards records in a day, and whether difficult tasks are woven back in.
Assignments too: give a child a lesson, daily or weekly, or as a plan for one
named day, with a minimum of stars and bolts to reach.
<b>Your data stays with you</b>
Everything lives in a database on the device. A backup is written only when
you ask for one, and handed to Android's share sheet - where it goes is your
choice.
