Math never seemed so fun! Join the cool cats as they solve puzzels, think about problems, and apply math ideas to all sorts of situations in real life.

Explore the online interactive math activities like Place Value Party, Architecture Blocks, and Magic Squares. You can even use an online calulator to figure out – to the second – Exactly... how old you are! After you try the activities, move on to MicroWorlds, online applications that give you a place to learn about probability, money, symmetry and more using virtual manipulatives. (MicroWorlds Web Player required) Don't think the fun ends when you turn of the computer... Math Crafts includes many cool ideas for using string, paper, color and shpes to combine geometry and art.

Teachers and parents can see great teaching ideas and post questions for other adults in the Idea Banks area... Grownups only, kids will find this very boring!.
