Generate simpler numbers rounds with adjustable targets, operations, and solution rules.
This is an easier version of the Countdown numbers game for teachers, tutors, and parents generating rounds for children.
Start with four numbers, a 10-100 target, and addition/subtraction only, then make the puzzle harder when the student is ready.
This Countdown game for kids turns the numbers round into a flexible maths activity for an adult to run. You can choose fewer numbers, keep the target small, and limit the operations to addition or addition and subtraction while a student is building confidence.
As children improve, the same page can introduce multiplication, division, larger targets, and more number tiles. The exact-solution option is on by default so generated rounds have a possible answer, which makes the game easier to teach and fairer for younger players.
There is a short survey about what is useful, confusing, or missing.
