The app does this live.

It picks the next problem from the last answer, skips ahead or doubles back, and animates the teaching instead of handing over a rule. Inside the app the same patterns the key names are caught as your child plays.

How to use the key

Mark the sheet against the key. Beside each answer it lists what the known mistakes would have written. One wrong answer is a slip. The same pattern three times is a rule your child is following, and the guide says what to do about it tonight.

On this sheet the key can tell apart: cutting the number off instead of rounding (11 problems), rounding at the wrong place (7 problems).

Cardinal Math watches for all of these, every day.

Inside the app the same patterns are caught as your child plays, across the whole of K to grade 5, and explained to you in plain words. One price, no ads, no streaks. Coming to iPhone and iPad.
