This game is designed as short independent practice after an idea has been introduced. It does not replace direct teaching, mathematical or scientific discussion, or an adult checking whether the learner can explain the idea away from the screen.
Have the learner mark counted rows or split an L-shape into rectangles so every square is counted once. Take a break when you need one.

Is it timed? Timing varies by activity. Check the available modes and instructions before starting.
