AlgeBasics is capable of generating thousands of sums on algebraic expressions, algebraic fractions or indices for drills to ensure that the student masters these very important basic skills in algebra.
Algebraic Expressions
It includes sums on addition and subtraction, multiplication and division, order of calculations, removal of brackets and simple indices such as 2b2 x 5c x 3b.
The sums get progressively more difficult if a student is doing well. If a student is doing badly, the numbers will be kept simple to let him focus on the concepts.
Algebraic Fractions

Math Practice 3.1.0
Math Practice - basic math facts practice more>>
We wrote this facts review program to eliminate some problems associated with paper work sheets. There is no copy machine, no hand correcting, and for students that have trouble with the pressure of timed tests, most of these puzzles allow them to practice independently with a timer. Best of all, these activities are perhaps a bit more fun than regular paper worksheets.
And what could be more fun that running an Aqua-style interface on a non-OSX PPC or Windows machine? Need to run your iMac lab under OS9 with only 256 colors? Hey, us, too. Specially optimized graphics insure that Aqua-style color gradients look good even at 256 colors.
Although many of the games in this application were designed with 8-10 year olds as the target audience, most ages from 7 and up will find suitable activities.
Main features:
This application contains several different math fact exercises.
- 1. Facts against a timer
- 2. Multiplication facts review
- 3. Division facts review
- 4. Addition facts review
- 5. Subtraction facts review

Italian Verbs 1.2.8
Italian Verbs is regarded as a reliable and useful freeware dictionary module for use with the shareware programs: Verbs & Nouns or Verbs & Nouns Lookup. more>>
Italian Verbs 1.2.8 is regarded as a reliable and useful freeware dictionary module for use with the shareware programs: 'Verbs & Nouns' or 'Verbs & Nouns Lookup'.
The module is for practicing the forms of verbs. Students often lack confidence about using verbs in Italian because each verb has so many forms. With a bit of practice forms such as 'possa' and 'faremmo' and 'si fossero alzati' become familiar and you feel comfortable about using them. 'Italian Verbs' lets you practice these forms at your own pace. It contains about 660 regular verbs and about 380 irregular (in 15 tenses and moods), with English translations. You can choose the verb or group of verbs that you want to practice, and the tense that you want to practice. You can use it for translation exercises (English-Italian and Italian-English), and as a mini-dictionary.
Supplementary information is provided for some entries, and you can add your own notes, for instance useful phrases. You can edit or delete existing entries, or add extra verbs. A built-in 'verb-generator' supplies the correct forms for extra verbs if you provide a minimum of information. You can record sound, and you can do exercises based on sound, for instance type-what-you-hear (recordings are not provided; you have to record the sound yourself).
Requirements: System 7.0 - Mac OS 9.2.2'Verbs & Nouns'
