About this product

Product Information

Help your child get a jump on learning with JumpStart for 1st Grade from Knowledge Adventure, an interactive classroom that merges education and entertainment. Featuring songs and animations, JumpStart for 1st Grade engages students and makes learning fun as they master everything from reading to math via simple learning activities. Compatible with Mac and Windows, JumpStart for 1st Grade video games include 18 activities and eight interactive books featuring more than 50 illustrated stories. Children join school mascot Frankie the Dog, who selects the player to be his partner for a treasure hunt and guides them through the virtual JumpStart school. They also meet the teacher, Ms. Flores, who takes them on a video learning journey through several categories of basic first-grade curriculum classroom subjects and activities, including math, science, reading, geography, vowels, simple fractions, and even music composition. Kids learn more than 90 educational skills in this JumpStart CD-ROM software video game for first graders that features adjustable difficulty levels for everyone from beginner to advanced students so they can participate in more complex activities as they progress through the year. This allows them to progress through the program at their own pace, making JumpStart for 1st Grade ideal for remedial students who need a little extra help and practice outside of the classroom as well as advanced students who need additional stimulation beyond what their classes offer. Plus, they earn points that they can trade in for milk cap rewards. First graders also visit the school cafeteria, overseen by Ms. Pickles, and learn basic math skills with activities such as using the virtual cash register to ring up other students’ lunch purchases. From there, they venture along with Frankie to the playground, where they test their knowledge by playing math marbles and other games and activities. The JumpStart for 1st Grade software game from Knowledge Adventure also helps kids hone their creativity and art skills via activities such as a simple paint game and by playing “Music in the Mouse Hole," which features a mouse orchestra. If students run into trouble while using the JumpStart video games, there’s a special tutor mode to help guide them through the activities to success. Designed to teach the first-grade curriculum, JumpStart for 1st Grade from Knowledge Adventure includes activities such as counting money, and lessons include “Bean Bag Science,” “Lost and Found,” and “Spelling Soup.” Start your child with JumpStart for 1st Grade software and then progress through the entire series of Knowledge Adventure JumpStart CD-ROM games and activities, including those for second grade, third grade, fourth grade, and on up to the fifth-grade version and beyond. Children of younger ages can benefit by starting with the toddler, preschool, or kindergarten version of the JumpStart software games and apps and then progress through the entire series of games and activities. While this JumpStart software is designed for first-grade students, the game may also be suitable for preschool or kindergarten students who are ready to take on more challenging learning adventures and activities or for students about to enter first grade who want to get a jumpstart on their next year of school.

  • First grade level CD

    I am still waiting for another response from the buyer because my program CD has a glitch in it that one part of the challenges does not perform so the child can't complete the equations. I asked for a replacement at no cost to me I would gladly send this one back to him. Otherwise I like this series of Educational Tools because they have a good reputation.
