Our family got to try out a website called www.thefactortree.com because I'm a BzzAgent. It is a website that has a variety of math for children in Kindergarten and up. I have children aged 5, 9, and 12 and they all tested out this site.
My 5 year old really wasn't into doing math and I helped him out. I was surprised at the questions asked as I didn't think they would be doing that kind of math at that age. He only used the site for about an hour.
My 9 year old had a hard time with her math problems as well. She is in third grade. She was on the site for an hour also.
My 12 year old cheated on most of her math problems, but she knew what the questions were asking. She was only on there for an hour also.
None of my children wanted to go back to the site, but I thought it was pretty cool and I hate math! I think this site is a cool idea if you have a child or children who are having problems in math. There is a link on the site that will tell you what your children have been doing and how well. It is any easy site to navigate through. You can add as many children as you like as I didn't see a cut off on how many you could have on there. There is also a calendar that will let you know if your child did not work that day.
I would recommend this site for homeschoolers or children just having problems with math or for children who can't get enough math!
If you would like to try it out here is what you can do: use BZF for a free 2 week trial.
