Math Applets & Lessons — eNLVM

Authored by Utah State University and funded by the NSF, the eNLVM (National Library of Virtual Manipulatives) is an outstanding, standards based resource for instruction and guided math practice in the NCTM core areas of geometry, measurement, number and operations, algebra and data analysis and probability. The interactive applets are divided into  grade ranges: pre-K-2, 3-5, 6-8 and 9-12 (younger students may have difficulty in reading instructions) within the 5 main areas.

Registered teachers may set up their own courses including materials to be used by their students, customized by class. Materials may be organized into “learning units” which

 

students may access for instruction and practice. Teachers may edit their course content, manage students (including keeping track of online work through the module), view all student answers at once, select applicable mathlets for practice and even edit select applets.

Courses

Students really enjoy learning using the animated, interactive modules such as spinners, ladybugs for logic and sequence, tangrams, and money.
