The Multiplication Tool supports the teaching and learning of multi-digit multiplication, a critical elementary math skill that many students have difficulty mastering, but which is essential to success in middle and high school mathematics and beyond.

The goal of the Multiplication Tool is to help learners significantly improve their ability to multiply. To teach multiplication, this tool models three common solving methods, including Standard, Partial Products and Lattice. Students, or teachers, can choose the method they find most intuitive, or use the method they find most challenging.

Is your son/daughter spending an inordinate amount of time trying to complete math homework in the evenings? You may want to consider online math tutoring. Do not wait for math grades to drop; do not wait for your child to become totally frustrated. Homework help with online math tutoring can give your child the math support necessary to succeed in math and regain the confidence to become a better learner.

Bill McCallum's analysis of the common core standards. Well done!

lots of resources and tools for analyzing curriculum and implementing the common core standards

The DoE has made these available for matrics to help them with the upcoming exam. It covers all the topics within the mathematics curriculum

The Middle School Portal 2: Math and Science Pathways project (MSP2) is a component of the National Science Digital Library (NSDL) that supports middle school educators and youth by offering contextualized, high-quality resources and promotes interactivity, collaboration, and knowledge-sharing among its users. Educators can access MSP2 to increase content knowledge in the areas of science, mathematics, and technology, and to build knowledge on developmentally appropriate pedagogy for youth aged 10 to 15. MSP2 also connects middle school youth to fun and engaging information on math, science, and technology, as well as health, safety, and career exploration. Web tools such as blogs, wikis, podcasts, RSS feeds, and social networking services are being used in the continued development of MSP2 to transform passive, text-based information into a dynamic, collaborative experience that promotes the creation, modification, and sharing of resources, and facilitates professional development. MSP2 is a project of The Ohio State University, National Middle School Association, and Education Development Center, Inc., and is funded by the National Science Foundation.

The NSDL was created by the National Science Foundation in 2000 to provide organized access to high quality online resources and tools that support innovations in teaching and learning at all levels of science, technology, engineering, and mathematics education.

Nice collection of handouts and videos on algebra topics

Abstract: "Human adults from diverse cultures share intuitions about the points, lines, and figures of Euclidean geometry. Do children develop these intuitions by drawing on phylogenetically ancient and developmentally precocious geometric representations that guide their navigation and their analysis of object shape? In what way might these early-arising representations support later-developing Euclidean intuitions? To approach these questions, we investigated the relations among young children's use of geometry in tasks assessing: navigation; visual form analysis; and the interpretation of symbolic, purely geometric maps. Children's navigation depended on the distance and directional relations of the surface layout and predicted their use of a symbolic map with targets designated by surface distances. In contrast, children's analysis of visual forms depended on the size-invariant shape relations of objects and predicted their use of the same map but with targets designated by corner angles. Even though the two map tasks used identical instructions and map displays, children's performance on these tasks showed no evidence of integrated representations of distance and angle. Instead, young children flexibly recruited geometric representations of either navigable layouts or objects to interpret the same spatial symbols. These findings reveal a link between the early-arising geometric representations that humans share with diverse animals and the flexible geometric intuitions that give rise to human knowledge at its highest reaches. Although young children do not appear to integrate core geometric representations, children's use of the abstract geometry in spatial symbols such as maps may provide the earliest clues to the later construction of Euclidean geometry.
