= First in Math = www.firstinmath.com One of the goals of fourth grade math is for the students to develop a fine number sense and speed with math.I would recommend using this resource consistently. You can use it to practice addition, subtraction, multiplication, and division as well as fractions, decimals, and geometry. The Abington School District has provided each student with an account to access First in Math. The students then compete against each other to see who is //First in Math//.

= = = Sumdog = @http://www.sumdog.com/ Sumdog contains some of the most fun games on the internet. The games themselves are challenging and incorporate math perfectly. You get to pick the game and the skill which allows the site to become tailored to your interests and needs. You can access the games as a guest or create an account. I have created accounts for all of the students so please email me for account information.

= Mental Maths = @http://www.bbc.co.uk/schools/ks2bitesize/maths/number/mental_maths/play.shtml Mental Maths is a very exciting game (especially for boys). The year is 2110 and you have to save the world by figuring out math problems. The more problems you get, the more bio-rods you earn. The game is full of fantastic graphics, storyline and music. A great way to get your gaming child to practice some math.



= Talking Calculator = @http://pbskids.org/cyberchase/math-games/calculator/ The main reason I use technology in my classroom is to reach //all// students. Every student learns in different ways. This calculator will help students learn and understand what they are doing. When you hit each button the calculator says what you're doing.



= Estimation Game = []

This game is perfect to practice your estimation skills. The goal of the game is not to get the correct answer, but to get close on the number line to where the correct answer is. Estimation is a large part of Everyday Math so keep practicing.



=Math Glossary= @http://www.harcourtschool.com/glossary/math_advantage/glossary4.html The Harcourt Multimedia Math Glossary is full of many of the math terms used in fourth grade. The definitions are clear and have animated pictures. This is a great place to look up terms that are not clear in a Study Link.
