Hey there! Welcome to Accessibility Minute, your weekly look at Assistive Technology, those clever tools and devices designed to help people who have difficulties with vision, mobility, hearing, or other special needs!
Learning and mastering mathematics can be challenging for individuals with or without special needs. Fortunately, there are resources like the Komodo Math application to help!
According to Komodo’s website:
“Fluency in math is the perfect foundation for future success. Tailored to your child’s needs, Komodo develops fluent math skills at home through short practice sessions…”
The app was developed by qualified teachers for families and is an “effective and rewarding” way of helping your child learn math at home.
Other features include:
- It can conveniently be used on smartphones, tablets, and laptops
- Requires just 15 minutes, about 3 to 5 times per week
- The app reports back on your child’s progress as frequently as you’d like and allows you to set real-life rewards to motivate them along the way
- Helps develop concentration and a great attitude towards learning
- Komodo’s adaptive system allows users to skip an appropriate level once they’ve mastered a topic, so everyone should be able to find it constantly rewarding and challenging
- Ideal for children ages 5 and up!
