(Note: please email me at frenchj@mail.sd91.bc.ca if you
find errors or have suggestions for new links. I would greatly appreciate your
thoughts. Thank you, Jill French.
Building
the speed and accuracy of your math facts greatly improves your success in more
complicated math concepts you will learn in higher grades. From the list below,
choose the area you want to work on. Look for the red * to 'see' the concept.
You
may want to begin with a refresher lesson. Go to www.learnalberta.ca, enter as a guest.
At this point you choose your grade level, your subject area (mathematics), and
follow the choices until you see ‘lessons’. You may choose from a
variety of short, interactive video-clip lessons.
