Scoring
There are 10 questions in most of the activities.
Each time you answer a question correctly, the Trilingual Laptop
Plus™ will say, “Good”.
If the answer is incorrect, the unit will say, “Try Again” and then give
you another chance to answer correctly. If your second answer is
also incorrect, the unit will then display the correct answer.
Once the game is fi nished, the unit will display your score and remark
about your performance.
The Trilingual Laptop Plus™ will say:
“Excellent!” and display “Perfect” if there were no mistakes;
“Good” and display “Good” if there were just a few mistakes; and
“Try Again” and display “Fair” if there were many mistakes.
