Well, they haven’t gotten to Calculus yet, but they have added 100 third grade lessons just in the nick of time, as I am about to beat my head into the ground trying to get my third grader to understand multiplication. Oh, she memorizes the facts enough to get by, but does she really understand what those numbers mean?
Which is why I love having a program like DreamBox in my arsenal. Not only does it reviews facts that kids learn in school (public, private or home), but it shows kids how to approach math from different angles, knowing that not all kids “see” things the same way. And since it’s a dynamic internet site, it adjusts the lessons to fit a child’s ability, repeating skills that weren’t quite mastered, and letting kids breeze through skills that come naturally.
I loved our free trial! The site is great, I am just not willing to pay for it in addition to all the other math manipulatives, workbooks, and games we have.
I'd still love another free trial to use on the littler one though!

I'd love to try it out. Alex struggles a little in math, not alot but a little. It would be great to give her that extra boost over the summer.

This looks very cool, perfect for a kid to grasp the ideas.

I recently decided to homeschool my daughter for first grade this next year, and while I think I know what math program we're going to use, I'd love to try out Dreambox to help reinforce her love of math. It's her favorite subject.
