"iknowit.com" is a fairly new site that can help elementary school math teachers keep students at a good pace while also being able to modify the learning to their own level. It has lessons from kindergarten to 5th grade, and has dozen of informative and focused exercises for each grade! The fun and well-animated characters can be distracting at times, but they also add some entertainment value as every student could feel a sense of accomplishment when the characters on screen are congratulating them for every step they make towards a goal. The site tells you exactly how many problems you have left to go, which can help students to know how much time they should put into each question. It even gives a limited number of hints that students can use per lesson to help them along if they get stuck once or twice.
The site uses a profile based system for each student, which makes it easy for the teacher to see who has completed what lessons. In addition, because it is website-based, it could also be an effective tool to use in tandem with keyboard learning lessons, combining both skills! If a math teacher is looking for something new, modern, and fun for many different grades, look no further than this site!
