Amazing Math Site!

PhotobucketI must admit, I have been skeptical about online math programs. TenMarks has been a pleasant surprise. This program can serve as either a supplement to an existing math curriculum or as a stand alone curriculum. Students are able to watch video help lessons, work online math worksheets and receive immediate feedback, earn rewards, and take online math tests. The parent area is very user friendly and allows parents to customize the number of worksheets their child completes, the rewards their child can receive, and multiple other options. "TenMarks offers lessons and personalized programs that cover all the core math skills and concepts your child will need in school."
•Grades 3-10
•Over 100 core skills per grade
•Hints and video lessons for every topic
•Mapped to state standards

This is a screen shot from one of the worksheets. A great feature of TenMarks is the immediate feedback at the end of a worksheet and the ability for students to go back and rework just the problems they have missed. Students love not having to re-do the entire worksheet. Our daughter worked on the 5th grade math and has loved it! The reinforcement for her math curriculum was wonderful. TenMarks really helped move her on to more challenging material. She was a little frustrated at first, until she learned that she could watch help videos and get hints. Then she really took off. TenMarks has been so helpful that I recommended it to a friend of mine who is a math teacher. She is recommending it to all of her students. It is a great bargain at $10/month for the premium program. I have a feeling we will be continuing our TenMarks program. If I even attempted to stop it my daughter would have a fit! Using TenMarks is her reward everyday! To see what other reviewers are saying about TenMarks go to: http://homeschoolblogger.com/homeschoolcrew/783666/.
