We developed this app to suit our project needs, where we started to use it during initial number sense development and continued through the addition and subtraction operations. It is designed to be used by the teacher in the classroom, not by independent learners.<\/p>\n<p>It shows dot cards randomly, in a way that larger numbers appear more. The number of dots on the screen varies from 1 to a selected number of dots.<\/p>\n<p>If you think that the Subitizer will work for you, feel free to download and use it.<\/p>\n<p>Download the Subitizer [<a href=\"https:\/\/www.dropbox.com\/s\/2z6yaxrq4ta8uae\/Subitizer_eng.rar?dl=1\">Subitizer_eng.rar<\/a>]\n<h3>Installing<\/h3>\n<p>Important Note: You need to have Java installed in your computer to run the Subitizer.<\/p>\n<ol>\n<li>Download the &#8216;Subitizer_eng.rar&#8217; file from the link above to any folder in your computer,<\/li>\n<li>Extract the Subitizier_eng.jar file.<\/li>\n<li>No installation is necessary.
