SITE: MATH GALAXY

Ages 8 to 13
Parent's Guide to Children's Media
Using Java Applets, this site does a wonderful job of providing addtional math support
to students who need the information presented to them in a slightly different way.
Problems range from basic operations to fractions to decimals to shapes and measurements
to graphs and tables.
Too many sites provide a simple 'sorry' or 'correct' response.
Math Galaxy allows students two attempts at a problem after which the computer takes over
and gives not only the correct answer, but provides a visual to explain the answer.
