"ABCya! is the leader in free educational kids computer games and activities for elementary students to learn on the web. All children's educational computer activities were created or approved by certified school teachers. All educational games are free and are modeled from primary grade lessons and enhanced to provide an interactive way for children to learn. Grade level lessons incorporate areas such as math and language arts while introducing basic computer skills. Many of the kindergarten and first grade activities are equipped with sound to enhance understanding. Fun children's Holiday activities are available in grade level sections! "
"AAA Math features a comprehensive set of interactive arithmetic lessons. Unlimited practice is available on each topic which allows thorough mastery of the concepts. A wide range of lessons (Kindergarten through Eighth grade level) enables learning or review to occur at each individual's current level."
* Describe and draw vertical, supplementary and complementary angles. Verify the relationship between the angles by measuring.
* Using graph paper, apply transformations to geometric figures such as:
o rotate or turn
o reflect or flip horizontally and vertically
o translate or slide
o dilate or scale
Find applications of transformations such as tiling, fabric design or art.
* Describe and construct solid figures including prisms, pyramids, cylinders and cones.
* Verify the Pythagoreum Theorum by measuring. Apply the Pythagoreum Theorum to find the missing length of a side of a right triangle when the other two sides are given.
* Analyze games of chance and board games using probability and make predictions about the possible outcomes.
* Use information derived from line, bar, circle and picture graphs and histograms to make comparisons, predictions and inferences.
* Organize and describe data using a matrix.
* Graph a two variable linear equation on the coordinate plane, using a table of ordered pairs.
* Describe and represent relations using tables and graphs.
* Create and solve problems using proportions, formulas and functions.
FlyBy Math™ consists of five Air Traffic Control (ATC) Problems that address the safe separation of two planes.
In each problem, students:
* Conduct an experiment that simulates the airplane scenario.
* Use guided paper-and-pencil activities to determine the number of seconds it takes each plane to travel a given distance along a jet route.
The National Library of Virtual Manipulatives (NLVM) is an NSF supported project that began in 1999 to develop a library of uniquely interactive, web-based virtual manipulatives or concept tutorials, mostly in the form of Java applets, for mathematics instruction (K-12 emphasis). The project includes dissemination and extensive internal and external evaluation.
"The NCES Kids' Zone provides information to help you learn about schools; decide on a college; find a public library; engage in several games, quizzes and skill building about math, probability, graphing, and mathematicians; and to learn many interesting facts about education."
Ask Dr. Math is a question and answer service for math students and their teachers. A searchable archive is available by level and topic, as well as summaries of Frequently Asked Questions (the Dr. Math FAQ).
