Educational Challenge

A teacher designed Educational Challenge for children in elementary school who need help learning elementary school basic facts.

The game offers two levels.

INSTRUCTIONAL: when the player is asked a question, two choices are shown for possible answers. If the player selects an incorrect answer, the game keeps flashing the correct answer until the player selects it.

The player is then rewarded for making the correct choice with applause, cheering and a colored balloon pops up to show that a correct answer has been selected.

CHALLENGE: When player selects the challenge, it is timed and the player gets challenged each time they play. Two choices are offered, but this time when an incorrect answer is selected, it is counted as incorrect and player does not score a balloon, or applause.

At the end of the game, the score is given and the player has the option of going back to the question that was incorrect so the player can see the error.

Players can play alone or with others. Music can be turned on or off.

Categories includes:

MATH: Addition, subtraction, multiplication and word problems.

ENGLISH: Parts of speech, capitalization, and abbreviations.

HISTORY: Questions about America

GEOGRAPHY: State capitals, locations

SCIENCE: Basic Science questions

BEGINNER: Shapes, colors, fairy tale questions

EDUCATIONAL CHALLENGE builds self -esteem because player is rewarded for correct answers, and the INSTRUCTIONAL level encourages correct answers.
