I make movies several times a week about the topics we are learning in math. Students watch these videos to learn and review in class but this is also a great resource for kids who are absent! This website is also a great way for parents to see exactly what kids are learning in class!
Prodigy is a fun games-based math website. Students must answer questions to cast "spells" on their opponent. Correct answers result in stronger spells. This game quickly adapts to provide questions that match your child's academic level in math.
Sumdog.com is a games-based website that targets math and reading skills that need extra practice. Students can play against other students in their class or against the computer. This website is so much fun, students often forget they are learning at the same time!
Xtra Math is a great alternative to flashcards for building fact fluency. The website remembers which facts students don't know and works to improve those. It is easy for students to see the progress they are making on this website!
IXL is a great resource that allows students to learn about an abundance of topics within the Math, Language Arts, Science, or Social Studies subjects. Students can select an area of interest themselves! This website offers many opportunities to practice concepts learned in class!
Class Dojo is a website positive reinforcement tool to track student behavior and facilitate home-school communication. As a student, you can customize your Class Dojo avatar! Parents can log on to see what their child has earned points for (specific positive behaviors) and if he or she has lost points any points for specific negative behaviors. Class Dojo also has a messaging feature so feel free to send me a message!
