3 Useful Educational Blogs


The following blogs are extra supplementary math sites when students can go on beyond class and search for more help at any time. They are very interactive. There are tons of tutorial links with video clips from a variety of levels. For http://homeschoolmath.blogspot.com/, there is one particular tool I love about the site. They generate a too which you can play around with the software. One of the examples is how to identify fractions. They give you many different visual tools you can play with, and one can generate many fractions with hands-on experience. Another lovable blog is http://mathgoodies.blogspot.com/2011/04/homework-help-math-goodies.html. Students can post a math homework problem they have difficulty solving, and there will be math genius who will post explanation for the solution. Technology rocks! Besides, math tutorial videos are very visual and easy to understand. It is helpful to introduce these blogs to students because sometimes our instruction alone cannot reach out to all students.
