Interactive Resources
Math Glossary The resource is a glossary of
Mathematics words based on the WNCP, partitioned by division. The majority of words at every division will have an interactive
component (JAVA or FLASH) to help illustrate the meaning of each word. In division one and two (where possible), real world
pictures to illustrate each word will be included.
Math Continuum This resource contains a series of
interactive mathematics problems, activities, and games. Topics covered in the resource include fractions; integers; order of
operations; percentages; rates and ratios; equations; patterns; angles; interpretation of data; area; polygons; circles;
circumference; the Pythagorean Theorem; volume and capacity; central tendencies; and graphs.Shodor Interactivate Resources designed specifically for students or teachers, including the java-based activities, sample lesson plans, background materials, and hyper linked textbook tables of contents.
National Library of Virtual Manipulatives A library of uniquely interactive, web-based virtual manipulatives or concept tutorials, mostly in the form of Java applets, for mathematics instruction.
Illuminations i-Math Investigations are ready-to-use, online, interactive, multimedia math investigations. Complete i-Maths include student investigations, teacher notes, and answers.
