| Visual
Fractions: Here is a great interactive
way to review and reinforce fractions, from numerators and denominators to visual
representations and mathematical operations, these JAVA-based activities ask students
to apply their knowledge of what you've already taught in class. The applets are
not always completely intuitive at first, but the directions and "Explain" buttons
help you to get around. Most importantly, these activities are fast loading and
devoid of the distracting bells and whistles we've all become to familiar with
on some reputedly "educational" websites. http://www.visualfractions.com/ |
