    A math website that gives plenty of games, printable flash cards and printable worksheets.

    Meghan Snell September 11, 2011 Overview: The site has been updated since the last review. It was updated in May of 2011. It is an easy site to use abd helps students practice math and who need help with homework. It is not very appealing to the eye but does have some nice purposes to it. Content: The authors on this site are not listed but the sponsors are clear as day to see. They are given on the homepage with links as well. The website has been currently updated and seems to work efficiently. The cool part about this site is you can print out flash cards and worksheets and create your own as well. This would come in handy for teachers. There is a homework helper provided as well as games and already created flash cards and worksheets which is great for kids to use. Design: The design on the website is very poor and basic. None of it really attracts the eye and i believe would really fail at attracting younger students who are looking for graphics and fun pages. A teacher would be able to see past the poor design but that's not exactly good enough. Everything is well organized though, and easy to find.

    AAA Math is a site used for learning, practicing, playing and exploring.

    Meghan Snell September 11, 2011 Overview: AAA Math is a very useful site for the learning of children. It's goal is to help children learn any subject in math, give tools to practice with, a few games to play based on the desired subject and some exploring available afterwards. It is definitely a learning based site instead of a site based on playing game after game. Information about the site authors is difficult to find but a section about the site itself and its purposes is easy to find. Every kind of math subject you can think of is given in a table of contents on the side and a header at the top gives options to link to any grade from K-8th. Content: As stated above, the authors and sponsor were not easy to find which is a valuable part of the site itself. Although there is that one little problem, the content of the site is very nice for the use of children. I like how it is organized into different subjects as well as grade levels and then does each in order through steps of learn, practice, play, and then explore. The site serves the purpose intended but another faulty is that no information about revisions is available. Design: There is not a lot of design to the website. The home page contains no graphics and just gives information about the site itself. This could make it hard for the website to be appealing to children. Parents and teachers would be able to look past and see the value of the site but children often look of graphics and fun. Everything is clearly labeled and organized though which makes it very nice to navigate.
