Resources for Multiple Standards
iTeach Math- Used by Pam Buffington at the MLTI math content meetings, this site is a great resource for supporting teachers and students in meeting the Maine Learning Results. Many interactive links and lesson plans. K-12
Project Interactive- With a goal that has a focus on "....the creation, collection, evaluation and dissemination of interactive java-based courseware for exploration in science and mathematics," you know this resource must be rich with tools to assist students in their understanding and application of mathematics. The "How", "What", and "Why" at the top of each activity is invaluable to both student and teacher. K-12
Interactive Resources for All Subject Areas- http://www.globalclassroom.org/ecell00/javamath.html K-6, Remedial 7-12
