These Are a Few of My Favorite Things
Five Free Fun Math Resources for Home or School - Check Them Out Today!
99Math.com
Practicing math is fun and competitive with this great website. My students love it. We even have school-wide competitions to encourage students to master their math facts. Teachers and parents can also use it for mastery of math standards other than just basic facts. From exponents to geometry and so much more, 99math.com is a fantastic free resource for all grade levels.
SolveMe Mobiles
I have been using this website for years and it is still one of my favorites. Teaching algebraic thinking visually by having players balance the mobile offers even young children the opportunity to begin thinking algebraically. By creating a free account, your progress is saved and you are offered increasingly challenging mobiles to balance. 144 puzzles plus additional ones created by community members.
Kids can create their own mobiles to increase understanding and add to the community collection of puzzles. Challenge 3rd graders and support middle and high school students with SolveMe Mobiles a fun introduction to algebra.
LetsMod
LetsMod offers students the opportunity to create games, animations, and machines with chips that run on math! These awesome STEM activities are an ideal way to bring creativity and scaffolded challenges into your classroom or home. Fun creativity for all ages.
MathFactsPro.com
Who doesn’t have kids that could benefit from improved fact fluency? I have been using this site for years! Research-based and adaptive, kids complete a set number of math facts and then earn the privilege of playing Mars Defense a fun space-themed game that continues to give students the opportunity to improve their math skills.
Although it is only free for 30 days, I am more than willing to pay the $1 per student for access to this great resource for the next 12 months. Math Facts Pro includes reports and tracking to let students and the teacher or parent know what facts the student is still struggling with.
Prime Line
In an effort to improve students’ math proficiency, I create games that support foundational math skills. Like Absolute Zero, Ten Fish, and Hunch, Prime Line is one of those games. The game is free to download, print, and play for parents and classroom teachers.
Similar to dominoes or Mexican Train, players add to their own or another line of cards that start with a prime number. But instead of just matching numbers to the same number card. these cards are linked if they are a factor or multiple of each other.
The download includes several pregame lessons or activities to help support learners and give them tools to use while playing the game.
