Sammi & Spencer Take Carrying-Over and Borrowing to the Extreme with Number Stunts!
October 14, 2014 | Posted in Announcements | By Jason Marotta
[ssba]Number Stunts for iOS is now available for download in the App Store!
Since Sammi and Spencer are twins, we decided to release both the standard and EDUcator editions of Number Stunts at the same time!
Number Stunts advances your student’s Addition and Subtraction skills to the next level, introducing the concept of “Carry-over” and “Borrowing”, and then reinforcing the learning of those skills through visual and audio cues.
Each time students answer a problem correctly, they are rewarded with a section of track. Once they collect enough sections, Sammi hits the track, showing the student the custom stunt course they created!
And, Number Stunts – EDU is the same as the rest of EDUcator series of apps. It removes social sharing and web browsing to ensure students stay focused in the classroom.
Students love Number Stunts, the K-4 customizable math adventure that races with excitement as it teaches Addition, Subtraction and Algebraic Thinking.
Number Stunts is a Common Core aligned math game that makes learning fun!
Stay tuned for additional video series episodes and new app titles!

Teacher’s Assignment: We Want More “EDU”!
June 30, 2014 | Posted in Announcements | By Jason Marotta
[ssba]Now Available: EDUcator version of Franklin’s Friend’s of 10!
The #1 request we received from teachers and school administrators was to create a completely self contained version of Franklin’s Friends of 10.
This is because many school systems are not authorized to download and install apps that will allow a student to connect to the web or social media platforms such as Facebook and Twitter.
We are pleased to announce the launch of a new series of apps specifically designed for teachers and educational institutions.
Franklin’s Friends of 10 – EDU is the first app to be released for education professionals and is now available in the Apple App Store!
