About Memory Match
Classic pairs, except the decks teach: match 6x7 to 42, "their" to its meaning, or a state to its capital.
Ankhdase tracks 4 distinct skills in Memory Match, including Working memory, Multiplication facts, Sight words: first grade and US capitals. Because mastery is estimated per skill rather than per game, the questions shift toward whatever a student is getting wrong — and away from what they have already proved they know.
There are 4 modes to choose from: Pictures, Math facts, Sight words and States & capitals.
How to play
- Flip two cards. If they match, they stay face up.
- The math deck pairs a fact with its answer; the map deck pairs a state with its capital.
- Fewer flips means a higher score — take a moment to remember where things are.
Skills Memory Match practices
- Working memory
- Multiplication facts
- Sight words: first grade
- US capitals
Mastery is estimated separately for each of these, which is what lets the difficulty move independently — a student can be fluent on one and still be fed easier questions on another.
