Dunking Donuts

Dunking Donuts is an embodied abacus, developed for children with dyscalculia and other difficulties with maths. We restored numbers to their origins: they are again things you can see, touch and carry.

Everything you need to know, in your hands.

It comes with an interactive panel that runs on a tablet or a laptop. Choose a player, open a session, and read what happened on the rods, exercise by exercise, digit by digit.

Patterns, not marks. And your own notes beside them.

The Overview card: the last five sessions, what is improving and what needs attention

Overview

What is improving and what needs attention, counted across sessions and traceable to the exercises behind it. Borrowing, carrying, counting groups, each with its number.

The notes app: folders, notes by month, and an open note

Notes

A notepad beside every player: folders, notes by month, sessions dropped in and written on. Private to you, or shared with your organisation.

See what the player sees, as it happens.

While a player is in the headset, the panel shows their view and the exercise on the board. You can send the next one, or let them finish.

Ages 10+

For primary and secondary education, from age ten, for anyone who finds maths hard to hold.

For organisations

Schools, practices and learning centres. You set up sessions; the players play. Names stay inside your organisation.

Headset supplied

The headset comes with the subscription, set up for your room. You need a tablet or a laptop for the panel.

Trials start in the Netherlands this year. info@ridiculus.co
