Integrating Websites into the Classroom

Funbrain
This site offers educational games for kids, parents, and teachers.  This website makes education fun, providing games that teach good math skills. I attached a link to the numbers page so that you can check it out yourself. This would be a good website for teachers to use to make math more fun. This site could be used in the classroom during free time. I always thought it was nice to offer a game during free time because children are more likely to gravitate towards something fun. If this was available for students to use on their own in the classroom I bet they would. This site could also be used in a math lesson as extra practice. As a teacher, I could assign this website at the end of a lesson and know that any game the student has chosen on this page is going to be practicing math. Because of the fun aspect of online games this is a good website to suggest for at home learning. Students will be more inclined to use it because it has an entertaining aspect to it. I think this is a good classroom website when used correctly.
