Tortoise and Rabbit Sums
Work the column sums on the abacus, one line at a time. Every right line is a step for PlayType. The rabbit is fast, but slow and steady wins.
How to play
The first number of each column is already on the abacus. Add or take away the next line on the abacus; when the dice show the new total, PlayType takes a step and the next line lights up. Stuck? “Show me” rings the next die to move. Five column sums take PlayType to the finish line.
Why slow and steady
On the abacus, speed comes from moves you no longer have to think about, not from rushing. Careful, steady lines get PlayType past the napping rabbit. It practices the column sums of Level 5 and 6.
