IXL Math is the best website I have ever found for improving math skills. The only drawback is that it isn’t free. A membership costs $9.95 per month. I thought I would share it with you anyway. It might be worth it to join just for the summer months as a way to keep math skills sharp.
You can choose New York State Standards as an option. Then you can choose the grade level. All the core curriculum math standards are presented. You can decide which ones you would like for your child to practice.
Each of the practice activities is quick (you choose the number of problems) and provides a short tutorial if the answer is wrong. The graphics are colorful and the feedback is immediate. You get a weekly email update on your child’s progress.There are detailed reports you can print showing strengths and weaknesses. There are also certificates and awards to print as milestones are reached.
Take a look at some sample problems, See what you think. It could be a very positive summer learning experience!
