Mary's site provides assessment resources for each grade level and unit of Everyday Math. You will need a username and password to access the resources, but you can easily obtain this from the district.

Resources for Everyday Mathematics, including online games sorted by grade level and unit.

This is the computer resource specifically for 1st graders. Students are directed to this site and then roam the activities they like the best or the ones I feel they need the most practice on. The Everyday Math website has games specific for each grade level.

This sites boasts of 50 different educational games on its site. It also recommends trying a new one everyday. The games do actually cover a wide variety of topics: comparing decimals, making sentences, and confusing words to name a few. I played the Making Sentences game, which can be played by students of all ages to reinforce the essential elements of a sentence. I did get all 10 correct if anyone feels up to the challenge:)

The BBC Skillswise website is very well organized and has a wide variety of games, activities, and worksheets especially for mathematics and language arts. They have a Quick Read section where you can download the first few chapters of "bite-sized" books by best-sellling authors. Students can also practice their scanning skills through many formats from online activities to worksheets. One game called "Who Killed Angela Spelling" is a fun way for students to test their ability to scan text for specific information. This might be a good activity prior to doing research. The site also offer a wealth of resources for students to practice pretty much any area of mathematics.

This is a really neat website. I am always looking for games that my students can practice on and review new concepts, skills and strategies. In looking through the games I was impressed by how challenging some of them were. A lot of the games that I have found on previous sites are pretty easy but these are challenging. I tried playing the Apostrophes game, Beat the Clock on fast speed and I couldn't beat the clock!
