Making Math Fun!


Growing up, I found math to be the most difficult and complex subject. Because of this, I struggled and lacked the ability to connect with the content. However, during my work experiences, I was presented with an easily accessible and exciting website. Coolmath4kids introduces to children online games which encourage them to use their math skills. 



For example, in a game called Island Chase(shown above), students have to answer the subtraction questions as quickly as possible in order to win the game. They can choose the answer they believe to be correct below the questions. In addition, students can play with each other to create a competition, fueling the excitement to use math tools while testing their knowledge. Incorporating this site into lessons provides children with learning disabilities or those who cannot comprehend math through pencil and paper to grow a liking towards the subject. This website also produces lessons for addition, subtraction, multiplication, division, and fractions. It provides online manipulatives and brain teasers, which can enhance a teacher's lessons. Overall, Coolmath4kids can supply rewarding experiences to those using it, and switches the view on math.
