I like this free software; the program I have used with students is
"valgetal" or "falling numbers." It practices adding, but it is really
a game of strategy, and has 20 levels of speed--the first so slow that
you can practically count on your fingers and get the answer in time,
and the top level so fast that I had to practice for a while to get
there.

We installed it on our network of classroom computers and it has been =
there for years without any problems.

I haven't used the other games put out by the same company.

Subject: Seeking recommendations for math software

I recently had a request from a colleague at a local ABE/GED center for
suggestions for math software for their computer lab. Does anyone have
suggestions for current software that would be good for ABE or pre-GED
level students?

Thanks,
Esther
