I hope you have been enjoying your summer vacation. I am sure you have found ways to use your math skills in your every day life. Have you estimated the amount of money being spent on a shopping trip? Have you seen a graph in the newspaper or magazine and tried to interpret the data? Make dinner or a dessert following a receipe.
As it gets closer to the beginning of school you should review computation skills. Visit a few web sites that offer practice through playing math games. Here are some suggested sites.
www.nlvm.usu.edu
www.mathforum.org
www.Iknowthat.com
www.mathplayground.com
If you need to practice a particular subject, put the topic in the search engine and check the web sites that are offered. If you find one you enjoy, make note of it or email the name of the site to me so I can check it out, too.
Enjoy the rest of the summer!
Mrs. Kelly
