From the inlay: The Mathematics National Curriculum is split into five Attainment Targets: this suite of SIX expertly designed educational games covers 10 essential areas of the Levels set out in the second - Number. The ten topics covered by the package - listed on the front of this box - are taken from various Key Stages and, as children learn from the games, their progress is automatically recorded in 36 specific areas of Attainment Target 2. The programs are fun for single players or groups and the unique assessment system monitors the progress of between 1 and 64 children with no input from parent or teacher needed. Watch them, join in the fun or leave them and return later to check progress. You're in control. Carnival - Here's a great shoot-'em-up that checks number skills along with fire power.
