Intermediate Maths 1
Rose Software return with Intermediate Maths 1 after their Primary Arithmetic. Now in all fairness this was much more my age-range when I was bought this. At the time I was struggling with fractions and also long division, which was what this cassette was all about.
Before each test you are given an example of the type of problem and are walked through it, perfect. Then to make sure you understand the instructions come the questions. On the fraction questions , there is room to enter your workings , if you want to, before inputting the answer, again , perfect!
Then each separate topic has a different little reward screen , again perfect! So Rose Software, why didn't you do this with Primary Arithmetic ? This program was incredibly useful for me ( and the second program published in this series as well ) . In fact I was actually able to get in to the top class for maths using this software ( I didn't stay there long , but I did achieve it!). It was so helpful to be able to come home and run this program to help keep these ideas in my head over a weekend or a half-term.
Plus there was also the ability to print out a certificate as well, to be presented to a parent as proof you could watch the A Team or Dr Who as you had done some maths today! Rose Software, all is forgiven!
