 * Comments: This site really great for teachers that are teaching math. It has different levels of math available and the games are entertaining for children of that age group. The site is easy to navigate, so the children could get to the page easy and know where to go. There was some advertising, but from disney. I didn't see any inappropriate advertising. There were more games for the higher elementary ages then there were for the lower elementary. There wasn't a way for the teachers to be able to tell how the kids are doing, so just for practice this site would be good. It did provide flash cards for all levels, which are also nice for great practice. I would use this in my 3rd and up classrooms. The children would be able to follow my instructions to navigate through the site and find the games that I want them to use. The games are fun and it would be something that they would look forward to be able to doing, making math something fun. I would use this site as a reinforcement of what we just learned, were they can practice until they are getting them all correct! -NS

Comments:** This site can be really helpful in the math area also. There are all levels for elementary math and those are easy to find. The games are fun and simple enough for any grade level. There was some advertising on the sides and up top that were slightly distracting. It also wasn't the easy site to navigate, though the site is meant for any age, the younger kid would have some difficulty knowing where to go. I would use this site in my classroom for the upper elementary kids. There are fun games for any level, so if it were able for the games to already be up for lower elementary, I would use it for them also. Everything on it is geared towards the kids and what they are going to find to be really fun to play. The games involve a character going places to figure out clues, but having to do a problem to get there. I think that kids would be really excited to play these games and not realize that they are reinforcing math skills. -NS

This website can be useful in multiple grade levels. There are different types of math available to click on which can be useful in a math class since numerous topics are discussed. The website is very useful but students would need instructions on how to navigate throught the site especially depending on the age group the website is being used for. I think this website could be used to help students become better in their math skills and to help them review a topic they have been learning. - KM
