This website is loaded with fun and challenging online Math games, Math videos, Math problems and logic puzzles. And the portions of this website that I utilized most in teaching are the Math videos and online sample Algebra word problems. For the Math videos it really helps the students understand the topic that we’re discussing in class for it gives a step by step process that is really understandable on the part of the students. And the sample Algebra word problems serves as a review on the topics that were recently discussed in class.

  1. If only I had this website when I was in high school. :) The TI83 is such a useful tool, but at the same time it can be very difficult to use if you are not familiar with all the functions and how to get to them on the calculator.

  2. I agree! I wish this had been around when I was struggling through algebra & pre-calc! I passed this link on to some of my coworkser in the math department.
