First in Math is an online program that all of our 3rd, 4th and 5th grade students have access to for this school year. Students can work on individual progress while also adding to their class team score. The “team” approach is a great way to get children excited about math.
While First in Math is certainly fun for students to play, it also offers substantive content that supports any core curriculum. Eight Skill Set® groups offer a full range of challenge and tie into national and state standards. Each game builds upon the skills acquired in previous games. Repeated game play helps students succeed in timed test-taking and helps boost confidence and achievement.
Students progress at their own pace, earning electronic “award stickers” for each level completed, and a record is kept of individual member and team progress. Games can be played on any computer with Internet access—including at home—to involve parents and family. Students will advance at different rates, according to their individual skill levels, but ALL players should experience improvement in numerical fluency, and increased speed. Studies show that students who play the 24® game on a regular basis see measurable improvement in math skills.
