"Technology Integration in Mathematics"

This site is probably one of the best math sites I have seen in a while for teachers to use in and out of their classrooms. Not only is it a great integration of technology into the world of mathematics but it is full of so much great information and resources anyone would be crazy not to use it. It can be used to provide support for teachers in exploring a variety of ways to use technology into their classrooms. It can also be used to enhance students mathematical thinking and problem solving skills. This site includes resources for algebra, geometry, number sense, patterns, and statistics. There are also links that lead to other web sites and resources that teachers can use in their classrooms to help strengthen their students math skills. Along with the links there are rubrics provided to help assess students progress in a standardized manner. Another goody that this site has is a miscellaneous tab that leads to resources for other subjects, information on workshops that teachers can attend and benefit from as well as more math recourses.

I greatly enjoyed this site with all of its great resources for me to be able to use to help my students form strong skills and structures for math. One of the things that I liked most about this site were the given rubrics on how to assess and monitor my students progress in their growing math skills. This aspect makes teaching the concepts of math a little easier on my since I know what to be focusing my teachings on the specific concepts and strategies that these different lesson work on as well as help me know what and how to grade my students on. I know that I will use these lessons and activities in my own classroom simply because they are so useful and ready to use. I hope you enjoy looking through this web site and are able to find it as useful as I have.
