Happy Thursday!  I have another program that I would like to share with you.  This time it's in Math!  I can hear the moans and groans now, even from my 4th grade daughter, haha.  I can honestly say that with this program, the moans and groans ceased.  What math program is this?  A+ Tutorsoft, Inc.  We utilized the A+ Interactive Math.

My fourth grader has honestly been anxious to use the online program.  This is huge because she hates math.  I am so thankful for this program and look forward to using it in the days ahead and with my younger daughters as well. 

 

How did we use the program? Some days I would have her just sit and do the audio interactive.  The next day she would go over the worksheets she learned and then take an online exam.  Some days I would mix it up and have her to the printable worksheets and exams as well.  For her to ask if she can go online to use the program is such a joy.  I honestly wish I had something like this during my elementary years as I hated math. The fourth grade program covers:
