Project description
Learners at KS2 (ages seven to eleven) are expected to know their times tables.
We want an app that KS2 learners can use at home to practise them.
Learners will get to pick different levels of difficulty and be presented with ten questions before being given a final score. The correct answer should be shown after each question.

Project 1: Success criteria
Success criteria
Below are some mandatory success criteria. You should add between two and four additional success criteria that you would like your project to be judged on.

Success criterion | Met? |
1. The app must have a welcome screen and allow the user to select either easy, medium, or hard. | |
2. Each round must ask ten questions. | |
3. The numbers must be selected at random. | |
4. Easy mode will test the 1, 2, 5, and 10 times tables. | |

Decompose the problem
Decomposition
Use the table below to document how you intend to decompose the problem. Don’t overcomplicate this by adding too many steps; remember that each step can be decomposed further, and use your success criteria as a guide to help you.
