"Welcome to the fun and challenge of mathematics! On this page, you will find resources to help students master the basics of mathematics of numbers and number operations. Videos and tutorials explain basic operations and help with the mastery of math skills in addition, subtraction, multiplication, and division--essential building blocks for success in mathematics. "

Step 1.) Think you're good at math? Prove it to the most famous mathematical thinkers in history. In Genius Boxing, you must defeat Albert Einstein, Pythagoras, Galileo, Bill Gates, Leonardo da Vinci, Nicholas Coperniucs, Archimedes, and Sir Isaac Newton in boxing using your math skills. Step 2.) Look at the number equation that appears at the bottom of the screen. Click on , or = to make the number equation true. Be careful though, each round gets much harder!

"Today while I was doing a quick Google search for a place I could buy a set of base 10 blocks, I came across this AWESOME digital version by accident. What a happy accident! Learning Box has a virtual version of base 10 blocks that builds in a fun practice game. Students are given a target number and drag base 10 blocks onto the paper to represent that number. As students add blocks, a counter at the bottom of the page shows how many blocks are currently on the paper. This is a great way for students to digitally practice place value, counting by hundreds, tens and ones."

These are higher level math concepts, but very cool engaging videos about math. Loved the probability videos!

"Illustrated Lessons Math is the language of symbols. The way we work with numbers tells us a lot about their relationships, patterns, and the ways they change. Math helps us describe both similarities and differences and also helps us think and solve practical problems. In this section, you will find some fun ways to learn about math. You can start out with Estimation of Length, Place Value and Weight and Capacity. If you want something more challenging, take a look at Line Symmetry, Patterns and Tangrams. Try some of these at home with your family!"

Interactive Math activities by grade level and category: Number, Data Analysis, Geometry, Operations, Probability, Measurement, Time and Money, Algebra

English - Reading, writing, speaking and listening, Shakespeare scenes and play summaries. Maths - Number, algebra, handling data, measures, shape and space. Science - Living things, chemicals, energy and forces, Earth and space.

English - Reading, writing and spelling and grammar skills can help you tell a story, share your ideas, write a letter and make sense of instructions. We use them everyday and they help us understand each other. Math - Why do numbers and formulas matter? In this section see how knowing about sums, averages, shapes, graphs and measurements can help you out with many tasks. Science - Want to know about how our world and all the things in it work? We look at materials, energy, light and sound; and, even observe humans, plants and animals in this section.

Huge number of choices. Could be great with IWB use.

XtraMath is a Seattle-based nonprofit organization dedicated to math achievement for all. Our goal is to develop effective, efficient, adaptive and intrinsically rewarding supplemental math activities and make them available for free. Great for tracking individualized fact fluency.
