Math Live is an interactive website that reminds me of Brainpop with engaging videos and characters that do a good job describing math concepts. This website is found at the Lean Alberta website that has quality digital learning resources based out of Canada.
Math Live presents students with animated stories that teach mathematics lessons. In all there are twenty-three lessons for elementary school and middle school students. The lessons are divided into four categories; Numbers, Patterns and Relations, Shape and Space, Statistics and Probability. Each animated lesson is accompanied by a mathematics worksheet that students complete either while watching the lesson or after viewing the lesson. Each lesson is divided into sections and students can advance or rewind as needed.
Since the teacher controls the pace of the video, it's easy to customize your lesson with class discussion, annotations, and/or Activote input.
Another nice feature is if the wrong answer is selected an explanation pops up that explains why that choice is not the best. Along with the video are assessments that state the lesson objectives with printable w
orksheets that have a scoring guide or rubric with student examples and rationale for the given score. This website is setup in a way that teachers can use it to teach whole class, or students can explore individually.Try it out. Share it with a colleague. Encourage them to sign up to receive activities and lesson ideas.
After the introduction (optional) select the lesson link in the lower right hand corner to view math content choices.
