Test4Time

Test 4 Time reinvents the teachable moment by finding common ground between two great forces of nature: A parent's desire to see their kids realize their full potential academically and a kid's desire to play as many video games as possible.

Note that Test4Time requires a paid subscription.

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Welcome! The Test 4 Time is a new app that helps kids improve their math fact fluency by using repetition of flash cards to achieve their goal.

BUT, what makes the Test 4 Time app unique is that it blocks the other apps on your Android mobile device. Kids are then required to answer age appropriate math questions to EARN time on the app they'd like to use. They earn one minute of device time for every correctly answered question.

HIGHLIGHTS of the TEST 4 TIME
