MangaHigh.com is an excellent website that specializes in high-interest math games for intermediate math concepts. You can try out a limited version of the games for free, but there is also a subscription based service that allows you to create usernames for your students and set up challenges for them. It looks great, and the games are not just simple computation disguised as a video game. They also work on concepts such as number comparison, graphing algebraic equations, estimation, and geometry. It is geared towards middle school math, but is also has "lite" versions of games to cater to the elementary setting. I would encourage you to check it out and see if it is something that would be of interest to you. Especially with so much ISAT review this time of year, it is a great way to reinforce math skills in a fun and engaging way. They offer a free 4-week trial period that could be extremely beneficial to try out and test with your students. I am excited to try this out for myself and see how it goes over with students and teachers. I think especially for junior high teachers who have trouble finding quality math games to reinforce their content - this is a great tool.
This is awesome Sean.
