On-line Math Practice With TenMarks
My class just started using a website for math practice called Ten Marks. You can find it at http://tenmarks.com. It was mentioned by several people in the 4thchat on Twitter last Monday. I had looked at this website before, but I hadn’t really moved past the home page. That was a mistake, because this website has a lot to offer.
First of all, it is free to teachers. It was easy to set up my entire class, and you can easily tailor assignments to meet the needs of students. It’s a great way for my students to get additional practice, and it is aligned with state core standards. It has curriculum for grades 2 through 8, and algebra and geometry. You can meet the specific needs of students by including skills from other grade levels.
One of the things I like about it is that each question contains hints for students to use, as well as videos that give instruction. So even though students are working independently, they have many tools at their finger tips.
Each student has their own ID and password, so they can continue to work on exercises from home. There is also potential to include parent e-mail addresses and include them in messages to students about assignments.
As students progress through the problems, they can have immediate feedback by clicking on the solution. When they end their session, they are notified immediately about their progress.
Management and assessment is made easy for the teacher because the website includes in depth graphs and charts that enable you to see how many exercises each student attempted and answered successfully.
