math websites for anyone to use!

[lcdc1]

I just had a PM I picked up reminding me to post some math websites for a very smart college student! I must have promised to do this and had my ADHD supress that thought. But here they are, I am not partial to any of them, most have some good stuff, some easier to use then others! Hope it helps you all that may be searching for this stuff!

Here is a fun one for me, it is a site I send my firefighters to for a remedial refresher before they take some fire behavior classe that I teach - you would be shocked how many adults need math help. (yeah, surprise for you all, I am a certified wildland fire instructor! Can you all believe this ADHD hyper person is?)

mathforum.org/

that is about a third of the sites I have, if you need more info that you did not find here, let me know and I can post more!

Good luck to all of you, don't be worried about math, break it down, put in representative values or items you can relate to in an equation and go! Not all people are able to learn math in a classroom, book scenario, do it outside, do it with somethineg that is hands on!

yeah, I think a lot of people looking for math links like that site! Tell me when you need more of them and if the links need to be moved to a more logical place. If you find any sites that are not good, tell me so I don't post them anywhere else.

There is some great software out there to invest in, but you have to know about it and not get sucked in by the expensive stuff. One that the elementary schools use here, is called PLATO, it is great, but a school needs to put up the expense to buy this stuff, a family could not afford it! Can you tell I am enjoying the updated smileys!

hey, good luck and there are some good math help books in the larger book stores like barnes and noble or books a million. They also sell the plastic binder things with flip cards attached to them that Ran has, the shcool physcologist bought them for her last year, I will look at them and see who makes them and you could check them out, they are algebra ones, but I think they make trig ones also. Hire a young college student to tutor you through it!

Make sure he is smart and cute though!
