This website allows students to work through complete online math lessons, according to their
grade level, that are consistent with the common core. It could be used for first through eighth
grade classes. The program is very interactive. It allows students to select their own avatar, move
up different levels within a lesson, and it tracts the students achievement to provide progress
reports. Since every student is at a different math learning level, the program is supposed to
adapt the difficulty of tasks to the students learning level. Unfortunately, this site requires

students to sign up with a valid email address and includes a membership fee. However, the site
provides different membership options, such as household, classroom, and school memberships.
Parents can get a membership as a practice tool for their children at home but it can also be used
by elementary educators as part of their school program.
