Maths Sites That Worked ...... for a Mac network on 0S9 + Windows - prior to "EDUConnect"
Brilliant site - lots of online activities for older kids. http://www.shodor.org/interactivate/activities/
Rotation - with activity applet. Needs to load Java http://illuminations.nctm.org/imath/912/sy_rotations/page1.html http://illuminations.nctm.org/imath/912/sy_rotations/page2.html http://illuminations.nctm.org/imath/912/sy_rotations/page3.html
This is at Mathsnet. An excellent interactive resource. there is more here than I can label - so I wont. You have to go there.
http://standards.nctm.org/document/eexamples/chap6/6.4/index.htm Understanding Congruence, Similarity, and Symmetry Using Transformations and Interactive Figures: Visualizing Transformations.
An excellent little tangram game - Need flash http://pbskids.org/cyberchase/games/area/tangram.html
Works fine. Great for transformations and reflections. http://www.utc.edu/~cpmawata/transformations/reflections/lesson1b.html
Not all of this works ...... but .... An excellent site with great interactive resources at the Math Interactive Site. R - 12! Includes a great section on the topic !http://www.globalclassroom.org/ecell00/javamath.html
This is one of my favourite pages. the kids love this. Makes some great patterns. http://www.arcytech.org/java/patterns/patterns_j.shtml
Another great little site. Easy geom. shapes and you can "Use the Rotate Left, Rotate Right, Flip Horizontal, and Flip Vert. buttons to rotate and flip shapes". http://www.galaxy.gmu.edu/~devsuper/test8/geojrmain.html
Great site. Divides the activities into pre K-2, 3-5. 6-8 Has a wonderful range of activities. http://illuminations.nctm.org/imath/index.html
Shapes work http://illuminations.nctm.org/imath/35/GeometricSolids/GeoSolids1.html http://illuminations.nctm.org/imath/3-5/GeometricSolids/GeoSolids4.html
Once again, a giant resource, with many resources for all grade levels. http://mathforum.org/mathtools/sitemap.html Congruent triangles http://www.ies.co.jp/math/products/geo1/applets/cong/cong.html
