Read the lessons →Clear a stage by independently solving two different routine problems and one application in a new context. Hints help you learn; hinted answers and repeated solves do not count toward that target. Clear every stage to clear a level.
Every stage includes an explanation, two worked examples and eight library practice problems, plus checked variations with changing numbers and applications. Each level also has a separate unit test and a later review form. Parents see actual attempts, hint use and results.
