R E.. BY MARK SULLIVAN.. CHI
LDREN ARE AMAZING. THEY LEARN.LANGUAGES
AND GESTURES MUCH FASTER.THAN ANY ADULT
COULD HOPE TO AND THEY.SEEM TO HAVE SUC
H A GOOD TIME DOING.IT. IT IS ONLY IN '
ARTIFICIAL'.DISCIPLINES, LIKE COUNTING M
ONEY,.THAT THEY NEED MUCH HELP FROM ADUL
TS... MARK SULLIVAN IS A TEACHER OF.E
LEMENTARY SCHOOL CHILDREN AND HAS.TRIED
SEVERAL DIFFERENT WAYS,.INCLUDING COMMER
CIAL COMPUTER.PROGRAMS, TO TEACH HIS STU
DENTS THE.SKILLS NEEDED TO GET ALONG IN
THE.MARKETPLACE.. HE FOUND MOST OF TH
EM LACKING IN.THE GRAPHICS DEPARTMENT.
THE COINS.DISPLAYED ON THE SCREEN JUST D
IDN'T.LOOK LIKE REAL COINS. HE FOUND TH
AT.HIS STUDENTS WOULD LEARN TO USE THE.P
ROGRAM OKAY BUT HAD TROUBLE RELATING.WHA
T THEY SAW ON THE SCREEN TO REAL.COINS W
ITH HEADS AND TAILS... SO HE DID AS A
LL GOOD TEACHERS DO.-- HE CREATED HIS OW
N TEACHING AID..AND HE DID A GREAT JOB O
F IT, TOO... THE MONKEY BEHIND THE CA
SH.REGISTER (SEE, I TOLD YOU IT WAS LIKE
.REAL LIFE!) WILL SPEAK IN THE UPPER.BOX
AND ASK THE CHILD TO CHOOSE.BETWEEN DIF
FERENT LEVELS OF PLAY... MARK RECOMME
NDS THAT YOU START.THE CHILD OUT AT A LO
WER LEVEL THAN.YOU MAY THINK. IT IS A G
OOD IDEA TO.LET THE STUDENT SUCCEED BEFO
RE.GETTING INTO THE CHALLENGING STUFF..T
HE FIRST SKILL LEVEL TEACHES EACH.INDIVI
DUAL COIN. SKILL TWO TEACHES.THE CHILD
TO ADD UP THE VALUE OF A.GROUP OF COINS
OF THE SAME.DENOMINATION. SKILL THREE C
ONCERNS.GROUPS OF COINS OF DIFFERENT VAL
UES... THE NEXT MENU ALLOWS YOU (OR T
HE.STUDENT) TO DECIDE WHICH.DENOMINATION
S ARE TO BE USED. AGAIN,.IT'S A GOOD ID
EA TO LET THE CHILD.START AT THE BASICS
BEFORE MOVING UP.TO THE MORE COMPLEX OPT
IONS... FIRST THE CHILD IS ASKED TO N
AME.THE COIN. THE PROGRAM WILL ALLOW.SP
ELLINGS THAT ARE REASONABLY CLOSE,.BUT P
ROPER SPELLING SHOULD BE.EMPHASIZED BY T
HE ADULT. THEN THE.MONKEY ASKS FOR THE
VALUE OF THE.COIN(S). THERE ARE MESSAGE
S TO SHOW.THE PROPER FORMAT OF THE ANSWE
R..SINCE THERE IS NO CENT SYMBOL ON THE.
KEYBOARD, THE PROGRAM USES THE UP.ARROW
(^) FOR THE CENT SYMBOL... ONE OF THE
BEST FEATURES OF THE.TOY STORE IS THAT
WHEN A CHILD.ANSWERS A QUESTION INCORREC
TLY, THE.PROGRAM SAYS SO, THEN MOVES BAC
K A.SKILL LEVEL UNTIL THE STUDENT GETS I
T.RIGHT -- REINFORCEMENT... IF THE AN
SWER IS CORRECT, "POP.GOES THE WEASEL" I
S PLAYED. IF YOUR.CHILD IS PLAYING INDE
PENDENTLY AND.YOU DON'T HEAR THIS TUNE E
VERY ONCE.IN A WHILE, YOU MIGHT CHECK TO
SEE IF.HELP IS WARRANTED... AFTER TE
N PROBLEMS, THE MONKEY.TELLS HOW MANY OF
THEM WERE ANSWERED.ON THE FIRST TRY, AN
D THEN ASKS IF.YOU WANT TO PLAY AGAIN...
PRESSING THE Q KEY WILL ALWAYS.RETUR
N YOU TO A PREVIOUS MENU OR.PROMPT YOU F
OR RETURN TO LOADSTAR..YOU CAN ALSO CUT
"POP GOES THE.WEASEL" SHORT BY PRESSING
ANY KEY..IT'S A GREAT SONG BUT EVEN MOZA
RT.RANKLES AFTER THE TENTH REPETITION..
IN SUMMATION, MARK SAYS:.. "I HOPE
THAT THE TOY STORE WILL.BE USEFUL IN HE
LPING YOUR CHILDREN.MASTER ONE OF THE MO
ST DIFFICULT AND.IMPORTANT MATH SKILLS.
I HAVE TRIED.TO MAKE THE PROGRAM ENTERT
AINING AND.MOTIVATING, BUT YOU SHOULD RE
MEMBER.THAT ALL EDUCATIONAL SOFTWARE SHO
ULD.BE USED AS PART OF A LARGER LEARNING
.STRATEGY. TO MAXIMIZE TRANSFER,.DRILL
THE SAME SKILLS USING REAL.COINS. HAVE
YOUR CHILD KEEP A LOG OF.HIS OR HER SUCC

TO THE CHILD THAT,.WHILE THE TOY STORE I
