Math Resources for Parents

Our Math Team recommends the following resources if you would like to further support your child’s math progress at home:

Learnzillion One of the most beneficial websites for Common Core is www.learnzillion.com. It matches our standards exactly and demonstrates the math using models, which is usually the most confusing part of conceptual math. Teachers can set their students up with an account and also recommend videos that align with our current topics. The videos are also accessible through Youtube without needing an account!  Type in the math topic for help.

Khan

 

Another resource is Khan Academy . Khan Academy is great for the standard algorithm, and some models. A benefit to Khan Academy that Learnzillion doesn’t offer are the practice problems with immediate feedback on Khan.  Khan also has a translation tool at the bottom of the page!  Once you create a free account, you can browse by subject, grade, and topic.
