Educational Games

I was reading through some old workshop materials this weekend and came across a link to a website that I already had listed under my "Math" tab on my blog.  It is called Gamequarium and it has many more components to it than just math including some reading activities.  Here is the link and I am adding it to the "Reading" and "Fun Activities" tabs too! Gamequarium Link  First Grade Friends - note that there are links to sight word lists and phonics games:)

Math Game and Bubble Fun

A fun summertime activity is to play games on the computer and a great website to build math and figural/spatial skills is www.mathisfun.com.  Click on the link below to play games like Connect Four and complete Jigsaw and logic puzzles.  You can also click on the headings to learn about different math concepts.

Math is Fun website

I have also included some amazing websites (see below) with activities involving BUBBLES which always make me think of summertime and playing in the yard.  I would love to hear how your experiments go when we return to school in August!

Math Fun on iOS devices

I hope that you all had a wonderful and fun Thanksgiving with your family and friends. I went to see "The Muppet Movie" on opening day which was something that I hadn't planned on, but I really enjoyed doing. I also spent some time working on my computer and iPad and was reminded of some very fun apps that are available for you to practice math facts and math concepts in general. I have added some websites to my "Math Resources" tab at the top of this page for use on the computer and here are some apps that you can find in the app store for the iphone/ipad:
Motion Math
Rocket Math
Splash Math
Mad Math 2
G 2 Math
ACE Kids Math Games
Fraction Fiddle
Kids Math
Coin Math
Math Quizzer
Pop Math
Sumsstacker
Find Sums

HAVE FUN!
