CK-12 introduces free elementary math content


Nonprofit branches out to elementary grades with free interactive practice and videos for K1-5 math

CK12-mathThe CK-12 Foundation has launched its first free interactive math practice problems and videos for K1-5 grade levels. The new offering is fully aligned to Common Core and represents the first time that CK-12’s content and tools will be available for the full K-12 spectrum.

CK-12’s new K1-5 Math is designed to help elementary school teachers, students and parents build a strong math foundation to support children’s future success in school and careers.

CK-12’s free STEM learning platform–created by teachers for teachers–is used in more than 30,000 schools worldwide and will now include a wide range of practice problems with video-based hints and step-by-step solutions. Challenging students to practice through multiple problems for a concept is expected to help deepen their understanding and provide teachers with additional resources to engage students.

Because all students are different, the CK-12 math content also provides students with several ways of mastering a concept. With its alignment to Common Core, teachers can now find practice problems and videos based on a particular standard.

The new elementary math tools are broken out by grade and include practice problems and videos for core concepts including geometry; addition and subtraction; multiplication and division; time; fractions; and measurement. Each concept includes several lessons. For example, second-grade money lessons include instruction on recognizing money; dollars and cents; converting and counting money; and comparing and arranging money. Every lesson has multiple instructional videos and assessments to provide students with a variety of learning options.

“We’ve always wanted to provide a full stack of content and tools to improve student learning for K-12 in STEM,” said CK-12 Founder and Executive Director Neeru Khosla. “This new launch will help teachers, parents and students to improve math fundamentals through deliberate practice and helpful videos.”

The new K1-5 math practice and videos are now available for free on the CK-12 website. They work on all computers, phones and tablets (in html5), as well as in one-to-one learning environments.
