Online Math Fact Practice

I was hoping to have a list of favorite apps ready to share with you this evening, but haven't had a chance to go through all of the apps I've downloaded in order to choose the most worthwile options. Instead, here are a few web-based games… I will have an app list out ASAP!

Free math games - multiplication  Scroll about halfway down the page

Why read 20 minutes a night?

I came across this image this afternoon and thought it was worth sharing… In the hustle and bustle of the holiday season, it can be easy to let reading slip by the wayside! Check back later this week for a list of our favorite books if you're looking for some holiday suggestions :-).

Myth Manics...

This week, we've read and discussed several Greek myths. This book has been very popular and would be a great holiday gift if you're on the lookout...  It is a classic and the illustrations are wonderful :-). Here is a link on Amazon, but it is also often in the bargain section at Barnes and Noble. Happy Reading!
