New ChooseIt! Numeracy App based on the BETT Award winning ChooseIt Ready-made Series from Inclusive Technology. ChooseIt! Numeracy contains over 230 activities with over 6,000 pages of simple multiple choice activities.
ChooseIt! Numeracy has a simple and consistent presentation, clear language, switch accessibility and full audio support which has made them a valuable resource for children with special needs. Performance reporting is built-in.
Each activity consists of a graded sequence of 20 to 40 simply presented multiple choice questions. Correct answers result in a short animated sequence with music and spoken reinforcement while a fun ‘monkey story’ game adds to the motivation.
Full speech support and switch access options provide access to learning by almost all students and simple performance reporting allows you to record student progress. These activities were designed by a teacher and Maths ICT Coordinator with over 20 years’ experience in primary and special schools.
