Math Help Websites

Here are some great sites if you'd like some help or practice!  (In order of my favorite/what I consider the most useful)


PurpleMath.com - This website has a great way of explaining how to solve problems, including why it makes sense.  They guide you through solving several example problems for each topic.  Also a section called "How to suck up to your teacher"  Take a look, eh?

KhanAcademy.org - This one has been in the news lately.  It's a catalog of thousands of short videos on just about any topic you can think of.  The videos are generally between 2 and 10 minutes long.    


CoolMath.com - Includes lessons, practice problems, a glossary, and some of my favorite games

Math.com - Lessons on a wide variety of topics.  A little cut and dry, but accurate.

Wolfram Mathworld - This site is definitely geared toward higher level math, but they have a lot of good information.  While Algebra and Geometry students could benefit from the site, Alg 2, Trig and Pre-Calc students are more likely to find this site worthwhile.
