  • Prodigy Math - gamified math activities; biggest selling point for me: “Teachers never pay for Prodigy: All math, reporting, and access to the program is free, and free forever. The only way that we make money is through a completely optional parent upgrade, which only unlocks extra game content (e.g., new hairstyles for a student’s character), and has absolutely no impact on Prodigy's educational quality.”

  • Manga High - games and challenges are free, reporting is not; generally ad free

  • Khan Academy - videos and math practice site: Khan Academy is free for everyone, forever. Students can set up an account through their school Google accounts and practice math from counting to calculus. Videos and practice are presented to your child as they progress at their own pace.
