IXL and MyBlee Math

As a school, we are trying to have our students develop more proficient math skills. I am leaving it as an option for students to either choose IXL or MyBlee Math to develop better skills. 

MyBlee Math can be downloaded on your tablet/iPad via: http://www.myblee.info/us/applications/myblee-math

I highly recommend MyBlee Math as it is more interactive, has rewards and trophies that the student can collect and covers the curriculum well. It is an American app but it teaches fairly similar math concepts as the Canadian curriculum. Also, it is also advised that students sign up for both Grade 3 and Grade 4 so that they can polish their Grade 3 skills.
