Comprehensive mathematics resource for questions on content, links to educational resources, etc...

This site contains a variety of links and resources for children to access to further their knowledge on a particular math skill. I came across this site when looking for picture graph resources for my lesson plans and was impressed by the links provided on this page. The most impressive link is 'Picture Graphs' which would bring students to a web quest type picture graph lesson that has them learning about picture graphs by creating some themselves and participating in the lesson. If you don't understand quite what I mean, check it out! Teachers could use this for students who need a little practice or even as a review game when visiting the computer lab. The links included are great resources for math teachers.
This website provides a multitude of resources for math teachers of various grade levels. The site offers printable worksheets, daily lesson plans, math warm ups, classroom management techniques for math, and so much more. The only downside to this website is the yearly fee that is required of $49.95. While this may be frustrating, you still have the ability to click around and see thumbnail versions of some of the offerings on the site. It may be just the thing to spark an idea and encourage new ways to learn math! While it may be out of the question for some of us to pay such a fee right now, you never know if your school would have access to such a website in the future!

This mathematics forum website is a great resource for possible activity ideas to use with your students. The main page of this website includes six main link sections: numbers and operations, algebra, data analysis and probability, measurement, geometry, and other resources. Each of these subcategories has an array of possible topic areas and activities to go along with these areas. These activities are aligned with the NCTM standards and often include the use of manipulatives.
