Great web sites for kids to learn math

Picture
LearnZillion has outstanding
3-5 minute video lessons for 2nd grade to high school.
or by the Common Core Standard. 
Best of all, all the resources are free!


If you are struggling with your math homework, you can enter a code from your teacher or search for a lesson on your own. Then you can watch the lesson and then practice the lesson independently with the Guided Practice lesson which is provided.  When my students watch the LZ lesson which matches my instruction at home, parents find it easier to assist with homework.  There are even a few key standards which have the lessons available in Spanish!

Here's what my students said about using LearnZillion in our classroom this year:



  • The National Library of Virtual Manipulatives offers free virtual manipulatives to help build understanding of key concepts. You can find more at Interactivate. PhET has still more options.
  • Interested in learning more about math?  Check out the articles on math at ScienceNewsforKids.
  • CalculationNation has fun games for kids.
  • N'Rich has activities for kids to try at home.
  • AdaptedMind has games for 1st through 5th grades
  • Great site with links to a variety of interative web sites by topic. Another great collection can be found here.
  • BrainGenie has more games with a free account.
