Welcome to our series sharing Homeschool Resources: Math. I would like to ask you to check out these Homeschool Resources and let me know if you’ve used them with your students or not. As for Charlie and I we will be checking out Cyberchase Fractions Quest this week because Charlie does need to learn how to do Fractions and I didn’t know how to teach them.
Based on the award-winning PBS KIDS Math series Cyberchase. Cyberchase Fractions Quest is an immersive Math learning game for children in grades 3-4 that trains and assesses their fractions and problem-solving skills using the latest research on how they learn best.
