Does anyone have any recommendations for an Amiga program for teaching/practicing basic arithmetic skills (+-*/) ? It is easy to write a program which picks random numbers for drill problems, but the Sesame Street generation expects more in the way of special effects.

Try Seirra ON-LINE in Coarsegold, Ca. They produce a line of software as partners with Walt Disney. Disney does the artwork, Seirra the programming. Titles from here include "Donald Duck's Playground" (Seirra On-Line Building, Coarsegold, Ca 93614 209-683-6858) Or, Microillusions with "Discovery". "As you explore and repair the inner workings of DISCOVERY, you will be challenged with solving math and spelling problems while being called uopn to muster every bit of your joystick skills. The level of difficulty is set by you." (BTW: The space ship "Discovery" looks like a combination plunger and TV antenna) (P.O. Box 2475, Granada Hills, CA 91344 818-360-3715) ------------- Ack!
