- Greater than, less than, and equal to for addition, multiplication, subtraction, and division
- Gauged for elementary grade levels (i.e.: 3rd to 4th grade, also useful for higher grades as they refresh their basics)
- Spin, Select, and Check answers with interactive correct and incorrect pop-up messages as well as happy and sad face counters.
- The spinner generates random operations to thoroughly test the child.
