MathGames

The designers of this math-centric site have done a fine job of creating a content-rich locale packed with learning opportunities that align to Common Core standards. The games are fun and engaging, and the interactive questions zero in on important math skills that most kids need to master to succeed academically. Parents can easily create targeted assignments, and kids can view their progress. It's an excellent resource for parents who want to support and/or extend learning at home. But there are two main issues with the site. First, there's very little feedback for incorrect answers, so some kids won't clearly understand why their answers are wrong. Second, there's no real instruction or videos helping newcomers walk through what needs to be done to set up new accounts or navigate the site, which can delay engagement with its content. But for users looking to supplement the math they're learning in school, MathGames teaches and entertains with lots of amusing content.
