Sunday, May 16, 2010  Arithmaroo and You Too: An App Review
Picture from  Full Disclosure, I'm no good at Math. It has never
been my strong suit and I currently eat lunch with the Math
Department in the hope I can build enough credit to have them
tutor my future children. :-) I ran across Arithmaroo on Twitter
and they suggested I take a look at their Arithmaroo 1: A
Counting Math Game for Kids app. As an English teacher, I wasn't
sure what to expect from this app, but the @Arithmaroo people
were so nice, I couldn't say no. Here are my thoughts on the
app.  The app is a very simple game that allows up to 4 players
and one guest to store scores and compare them with friends. The
screen consists of a row of numbers and pictures that appear.
The pictures might be rocks in various order or hands holding up
fingers. Their might be multiple hands with different number of
fingers or many rocks in various formations.The goal is too
quickly count the objects on the screen and select the correct
number. As time ticks
