Internet Connections

My algebra classes have been practicing their skills using an awesome website called Khanacademy.org. They are able to watch videos, take quizzes, earn points and rewards, and even track their progress. If parents are stressed about being able to help their kids with math homework, Khanacademy is a great resource to watch videos and explore topics you haven't learned about in years. As a teacher, it has helped me find a new way to assess my students' learning. Check it out!khanacademy.org

Another website I have recently begun to explore is IXL.com  (cleverly named!) where there are hundreds of practice exercises to choose from. With the way information is being processed now-a-days, (with almost everything happening on-line!) it only makes sense that our kids' learning can be on-line and interactive as well. See for yourself here: IXL.com

Happy studying!
