Online Student Skills Builder... Math & Language Arts


I'm thrilled to have discovered Sadlier-Oxford's website fully loaded with online skill builders for grades K-8. They are one of my favorite publishers of mathematics textbooks; my children have both used their Progress in Mathematics textbooks, 1st grade and 2nd grade editions. The lessons are well written, colorful, easy to follow, and include great instruction and illustrations and are constructed like workbooks.

A friend recently asked where we had purchased the kid's math lessons, so I went looking online for the publisher's website and found not only the textbooks, but a wide variety of tutorials, skill update exercises, worksheets, and more! This is where my kids and I will be brushing up our math and reading skills this Summer. No doubt about it!

Here's the starting point for your student: Student Pages

Another link provides shopping... if you're so inclined: Shopping Pages

This site offers online manipulatives like an online abacus, online algebra tiles, base blocks, dueling calculators and more! Check out the pages of virtual manipulatives and consider how they could supplement your homeschool curriculum! Very cool... trust me on this... you don't want to skip over this free resource!
