MAP Learning Continuum--Mathematics Number Sense and Numeration
Math Cats: Fractions - (PRI-INT) Students represent given fractions on a grid or with a pie chart.(Microworlds Web Viewer is required. A link to a free download is at the site.) (Strand 1: Number Sense and Operations, Concept 1: Number Sense, Gr1-3 Pos10-14 fractions)
Math Cats: Broken Calculator - (PRI) Students must create a given number using a calculator with a broken key. This requires them to write each number as a combination of other numbers. (Microworlds Web Viewer is required. A link to a free download is at the site.) (Strand 1: Number Sense and Operations, Concept 1: Number Sense, Grade 1,2 PO 6)
Math Cats: Place Value Party - (PRI-INT) Place Value Party: Students use 3 layer birthday cakes with candles representing 1's, 10's, and 100's. They trade candles back and forth until the cakes have equal numbers of candles. Candles regroup as needed. (Microworlds Web Viewer is required. A link to a free download is at the site.)(Standard 1:Number Sense and Operations Concept 1: Number Sense LC: Number Sense and Numeration) Math Cats: Can You Say REALLY Big Numbers? - (PRI-MS) Students enter any number they want (even outrageously large numbers)into a field. They are asked to read it outloud. Then they click to have the number written in words for them. Each place is written on a seperate line for ease of reading. (Microworlds Web Viewer is required. A link to a free download is at the site.)(Strand 1: Number Sense and Operations, Concept 1: Number Sense)
Math Cats: Using Money - (PRI) Students are given a written dollar figure. They drag the appropriate bills and coins into a work space. They can check their answers. Two levels of problems are available and include making change. (Microworlds Web Viewer is required. A link to a free download is at the site.) (Strand 1: Number Sense and Operations, Concept 1: Number Sense, Grades 2,3 PO 16,15)
The MegaPenny Project - understand and apply numbers, ways of representing numbers, the relationships among numbers and different number systems. Investigate place value concepts by exploring large numbers of pennies. The site steps you through pages which give information about increasing numbers of pennies. Large numbers are presented in standard notation and written form. Graphic representations show the numbers of pennies compared to a person, football field and large buildings. Additional information about the pennies (square footage covered, value, etc.) is also given. (Strand 1: Number Sense and Operations Concept 1: Number Sense)
Comparing Fractions with Different Denominators - Students compare fractions by playing a game and get a better concept of number sense when it comes to fractions. (Strand 1: Number Sense and Operations, Concept 1: Number Sense)
Visual Fractions - Visual Fractions is a site that uses a "fraction modeler" to help students understand and compare fractions using a number line or circles. (Strand 1: Number Sense and Operations, Concept 1: Number Sense) MAP Learning Continuum--Mathematics Computation

MAP Learning Continuum--Mathematics Number Sense and Numeration
Number Relationships and Properties of Numbers - (PRI) This interactive tool allows students to discover the patterns in repeated addition. The tool uses a hundreds board and a calculator. The link opens the teacher page. There is a stand-alone applet that the students will use in the classroom or lab while the teacher directs the lesson. (Strand 1: Number Sense and Operations, Concept 2: Numerical Operations)
AAAMath - Adding Positive and Negative Integers - (INT-MS) Students find the sum of two integers. They may choose to complete 20 more problems corrrect than incorrect, as many problems as they can in 60 seconds, or they can choose an option to receive more time for each correct answer. (Strand 1: Number Sense and Operations, Concept 2: Numerical Operations, PO 1 and 2, RIT scores 211-240)
A+ Math - Order of Operations Worksheets - (INT-MS) This site generates various order of operations worksheets. Students can fill in the answers online and recive the correct answers immediately. (Strand 1: Number Sense and Operations, Concept 2: Numerical Operations 4th grade PO 8,9; 5th grade PO 5,7 grade 5 and 6 PO 15)
Multiplication: An Adventure in Number Sense - Really cool site that helps with multiplication mastery! (Strand 1: Number Sense and Operations, Concept 2: Numerical Operations)
MAP Learning Continuum--Mathematics Computation
Math Cats: Old Egyption Fractions - (INT-MS) Students add unit fractions with unlike denominators to reach a given goal. Fraction pies are used to visualize the combinations. Problem solving thinking processes are needed to be successful. (Microworlds Web Viewer is required. A link to a free download is at the site.) (Strand 1: Number Sense and Operations, Concept 2: Numerical Operations) Math Cats: Number Family Cards - (PRI-INT) This site is a resource for teachers. Print out hexagonal fact family cards for addition/subtraction and multiplication/division. Includes activities and games using the cards. (Microworlds Web Viewer is required. A link to a free download is at the site.)(Strand 1: Number Sense and Operations, Concept 2: Numerical Operations)
Education 4 Kids Math Flashcards - A site where students can practice basic math facts. It is settable -- students can choose the difficulty level and type of problems. (Strand 1: Number Sense and Operations, Concept 2: Numerical Operatons)

Math Cats: Estimate a Crowd - (PRI) Animation shows from 15-2000 small people. Students estimate how many people are in the picture. They earn points for close estimates.(Microworlds Web Viewer is required. A link to a free download is at the site.) (Strand 1: Number Sense and Operations, Concept 3,Estimation)
