While you are reading this article, you only sweep each sentence with your eyes then you understand what is in the sentence without spelling. It happens automatically.
How long do you take to develop this skill ?
The beginning is to recognize alphabet A, B, C, D, . . . . Z. Then spell and pronounce each word. After that, you can read each sentence.
This skill is not developed within a day but years.
|
| 2 + 5 = ? |
| 7 - 3 = ? |
| 8 x 7 = ? |
| 72 ÷ 8 = ? |
Do you get the answers of these mathematical questions automatically when you sweep them with your eyes ?
If you have to spell and pronounce each word, you cannot enjoy reading a hundred-page novel because you waste time for spelling and pronunciation.
Reading text books without spelling and pronunciation is an important skill for study. This skill allows you to pay concentration on the content of the book.
The same idea is applied to mathematics. The skill of getting answers of basic operator, +, -, x, ÷, with one-digit or two-digit operands automatically is an important skill
for mathematical study . If you can do so, you do not waste time for these operations and can pay concentration on how to solve complex problem.
The objective of MathsGames is to develop mathematical skill to get answers of basic operator, +, -, x, ÷,
with one-digit or two-digit operands automatically like skill to read without spelling and pronunciation.
The simple concept to develop this skill is repetition. We practice reading every day until it becomes our habit.
After that, we can read and understand automatically without spelling and pronunciation.
Fortunately, there are a lot of interesting material to read such as story, comic, novel etc. They motivate children to practice reading.
Unfortunately, there is nothing motivate children to practice computing. Mathematical work books are boring for children.
Are there any tools for children to enjoy practice ?

MathsGames is a tool that is designed for children to develop basic mathematical skill of +, -, x, ÷. Games work as trainers.
They ask questions and get answers from children. Then check the answers. If they are wrong, the right ones are shown.
The right or wrong answers make different change in the events of games and cause win or lose.
Mathematical questions are created from random numbers. So the numbers change everytime you play the games.
The levels of difficulty can be controled by setting the cofiguration of games. So you can config games to generate mathematical questions in any levels of difficulty
according to the skill of your kids. This feature makes children practice from the simplest to the hardest.
Do not practice too long at a time because it make you tired then your concentration will decrease. To practice 10 - 15 minutes everyday is better than to practice
hours once a week. It takes time to develop mathematical skill. You can not develop it within a day or a week.

Times tables are a key factor that make you get product quickly. Another factor is the skill of addition. To use times tables efficiently you need to access each
product in times tables independently. It is easy to access sequentially but it is no use for getting product quickly if it is accessed this way.
example: 8 x 6 = ?
To access sequentially
8 x 1 = 8
8 x 2 = 16
8 x 3 = 24
8 x 4 = 32
8 x 5 = 40
8 x 6 = 48
The above is a part of times table. Each line is added by 8 until 8 x 6 = 48. If it is accessed this way, it is not multiplication but addition.
To get product quickly, you have to access 8 x 6 = 48 directly. In order to develop this skill, Balloon Game is created.
It randoms each product in times tables to test you. You have to answer immediately when a question appears. If your answer is wrong, the right answer will be shown
and balloons are lower. If your answer is right, balloons move forward. Your mission is to control bolloons to shift a house to an island.
Can you accomplish this mission ?
