ADDITION
All About Addition
http://www.aaamath.com/add.html
This site has bright colors that
would catch the eyes of a young child. This is a wonderful
site. This site took every aspect of math and turned it into
addition. Not only was addition with two or three numbers
covered, but also addition of fractions, decimals, and place value.
These games for fun and a younger child who is sharp on his/her math
facts would feel challenged. I would not use the games for
younger children who are just learning their addition facts because
they might feel pressured against the clock. The games that
the students can play are Countdown, Give Me Time, and 20 Questions.
Math Baseball
http://www.funbrain.com/math
I had so much fun on this site.
This site is book marked on my computer. This site is
interactive and provides the student to associate math with an event
that they enjoy. If you have a boy in your classroom that you
know loves baseball, and they will not participate in learning their
math facts, this site would be wonderful. You can select the
kind of game and the level of difficulty for the problems.
They give the student a problem and if they get it correct, they get
on base. The difficulty of the problem determines if the pitch
is a single, double, triple, or a homerun. This site is highly
recommended.
Wizz
Kidz
http://www.wizzkidz.com/
This site is great for a
tutorial. This site is semi-complicated. The student can
click on math and then a person comes on and begins to talk to you.
He uses beach balls to teach addition. After going through the
teach section of this site, I selected to play. After the
students learn, they can play. This game is semi-slow.
Instead of hitting enter, the student must use the mouse and go and
click on the answer. It tells them if they are right or wrong.
Cool Math 4 Kids
http://www.coolmath-games.com/arithmattack/index.html
This site is similar to drill
and practice. Everything is a race against the clock. I
like this site because they allow the student and/or teacher to
select operation at the highest and lowest number. Teachers
could use this site as a form of assessment of the operations.
High-Rise Math
www.hbschool.com/activity/hrise/hrise.html
This site is great for two
students to play. The student clicks on the dice and uses the
number as an addition problem. The more they get right, the
higher up they move. The first one to the top is the winner.
Farm Stand Math Game
http://www.prongo.com/farm/
This site has the best graphics.
This site is great for practicing addition with money.
Students will love the colors and the graphics. The students
add or multiply the food and then they put the answer in the block
and hit enter.
ThinkQuest
http://libray.tihinkquest.orgj002596/*This
page could not be found
This site is good for beginners.
The word problems are illustrated to make it easier for the learner.
After the learner answers all of the problems, the computer will
grade their answers. This is a good form of assessment to use
for students who are just learning addition. This is also a
good review for students who are having difficulty with their
addition.
http://www.thinkquest.org/library/cat_show.html?cat_id=246*
This is a site that I found in the ThinkQuest Library. It is a
page full of arithmetic websites.
Addition, Sums 10 To 18:
Concentration Game
http://www.quia.com/cc/633.html
This site is great. It
reinforces addition vocabulary. The students must click on a
card and then try to uncover the sum or the problem. It keeps
up with how many you get right. After you complete one game,
there are more concentration games. The sums are between 10
and 18.
Addition, Sums 10 To 18:
Matching Game
http://www.quia.com/mc/633.html
This site is very basic.
The addition problems are turned face up as well as the answers.
The student has to match the sum to the correct addition problem.
This site is really good for beginners. The sums are between
10 and 18.
Fun With Animals* This Page
could not be found
http://www.syvum.com/cgi/online/serve.cgi/kwps1/ksmat4b.sal
This site just contains a set of
questions that the student can answer. After they answer their
questions, they can click "score" and show answers. They can
also receive a different set of questions. This is good to use
as an assessment technique. There is not any graphics on this
page.
Flashcards For Kids* This
Page could not be found
http://www.edu4kids.com/math
This site allows teachers and
students to choose any type of math problem to work from addition to
division. This site quizzes the students by using the flashcards.
There are three levels that the students by choose from: Easy,
Simple Or Complex. Number sizes may very between 0-999.
The computer will keep score and run the timer for the students.
The student may choose to read the problems on-the flashcard
vertically or horizontally.
Number Z
http://www.semiotics.com/flash/
This site allows
teachers/parents to download the files for a free Demo that could be
used as a full program. This site allows students to practice
their addition and other mathematical skills. This site
reviews numbers up to 20. This site provides score keeping and
controls penalties and rewards for the players. It students
get a problem wrong, the computer will repeat the missed question
later on in the game. This is a great, interactive way to get
the students interested in math and technology.
Alphametic
Puzzles
http://www.tkcs-collins.com/truman/alphamet/alphamet.shtml
This web site is truly for the
older student (grade 8-). The site offers puzzles set up like
an addition problem in which digits can be substituted for letters
to make the formula true. This can get confusing. There
are rules provided when trying to solve the puzzle. A teacher
should allow the students to work on this independently or in
groups, but the teacher should allow the students to get frustrated
with his flash her self and working this problem.
Big Chalk: The Education

great online game for lower elementary students.

This site has links such as
Matching, Flashcards, and Concentration. The Matching addition
game has different addition problems and students must match the

that you can choose from. The division topic gives you
information on how to divide fractions. This site seems boring
to me and unbeneficial.
AAA Math
http://www.aaamath.com/index.html
I think that this site would be
helpful to teachers. It has a screen were you pick the grade

on. This site is a good site for students to work on double
division.
Education 4 Kids* Page could
not be found
http://www.edu4kids.com/math/
I didn't really like this site.
The site had you pick your area that you wanted and then you just
enter the answer. I don't think it would help students learn.
It's boring and it uses the old way of learning division by using
drill.
