Remade for Mac OS X by Software MacKiev, the ClueFinders series is presented in the format of a Saturday morning TV cartoon adventure show. Kids learn key math skills and have fun with four junior detectives, the ClueFinders, as they trek into a mountain village in the Himalayas help the elders there find missing treasures. Along the way, kids solve math problems that build a variety of important skills including whole number computation, fractions & decimals, geometry & measurement, and charts, graphs & tables. From purchasing supplies in the village store to building a corral for yaks, kids help the ClueFinders solve challenging math problems to earn clues that reveal what happened to the missing treasures. Rumors of Yeti sightings and suspicious footprints will keep them on their toes. Using the A.D.A.P.T.
