Number Aquarium 1.0 Demo This is a Kids Game Mactivity's CD-ROM nr 10 advice: This application did run on a b/w 68030 processor under System 7.1. It was also tested on a big ColorScreen of a PowerMacintosh running System 7.1.2. The game was also tested on a Quadra with 68040 processor and a 13 inch Color Screen and System 7.1 by Mactivity. Welcome to the Number Aquarium no-sound demo! We developed the full version of this program as a fun way to help youngsters learn the basics of writing and counting the numbers 1 through 20. Number Aquarium integrates sound and animation to teach number formation and recognition to early education students. In the first of two activities, the numbers 1 through 20 are each represented by animals of the sea, which show how to draw the numbers. For instance, Pamela Penguin demonstrates how to draw the number four. The child can then use the mouse or other pointing device (such as the TouchWindow® or certain adaptive devices) to draw the number, with their progress traced on screen. The second activity emphasizes counting skills. Each animal presents a number of objects to be counted. The child then points to each object and the software counts along with the child. IntelliTrace(TM) Technology A proprietary technology for tracing was developed specifically for this software. IntelliTrace(TM) allows the child to use the mouse or alternative input device with relative ease, while giving real-time feedback of the child's progress. This is the no-sound demo version of Number Aquarium, containing only the numbers 1 through 5. We have removed the sounds so that the file would be smaller for downloading purposes. There is also a demo available on most online services containing the sounds, should you wish to spend the longer download time. One of the big advantages of the full version of Number Aquarium is the sounds, so please register your shareware to get the benefit of the auditory feedback! Back to the Computer Games Index
