NCTM has provided another valuable resource for elementary and middle school math teachers with the addition of Calculation Nation to their website. These online games focus on topics such as fractions, perimeter, factors, angles, etc. Players can join as guests or create an account to play against other Calculation Nation members. If you want to have your child playing intelligent games while they are on the computer check out Calculation Nation.

Hi, Ted,
ReplyDeleteThanks for the link! I've already shared it with a couple of teachers and a parent who happened to mention that her middle school student "hated" math.
I'm also thinking about how this blog could be very useful to your Mason teachers who are just dipping their toes into what is out there on the internet, and what they can do with technology. The trick is to get some followers! Any ideas?
