Students guide a caterpillar around the screen to eat the correct veggies, numbers, or words in this multi-mode arcade game. In veggie mode students practice general navigation, in number mode they match numerical expressions to their answers, and in word mode they identify First Grade Dolch and Fry sight words. The caterpillar grows with each correct answer and shrinks with each mistake, and a new randomized round begins every time. Supports TX Mathematics standards for Grade 1.
Skills: sight word recognition, numerical expressions, hand-eye coordination, quick decision-making. Grades K-2.
