Sumdog

I have introduce yet another web site for fact practice to the girls. It is called Sumdog. It looks like it would be more motivating to the girls than some of the others. As they practice their facts and compete with other people, they can earn points to "buy" things for their avatar. They can purchase clothes, accessories, and fun items using points that they have earned. You just may have to remind them that the point is to practice their math. They will probably want to spend more time designing their avatar than working on their math facts! You can choose the skill to work on for each session such as addition, subtraction, multiplication, number patterns, etc. It might be a fun alternative during the week as you practice for the fact tests. I put a live link over on the right side of my blog. The girls know where it is and shouldn't have any problem getting to the site independently. Have fun!
