    Hi,
    Just wondering if anyone is using mangahigh for maths or similar websites for students? And if you are, what is your opinion on whether it is useful or not.

    We took part in the World Education Games and saw large jumps in progress with students in the three weeks (+45% in speed and accuracy). However it only focuses on arithmetic and runs in February/March. I'd like to know if anyone has had success with larger scale platforms and student improvement

    We did use mangahigh very successful, but in the past year it has become more expensive and there are less free activities. Trying out khanacademy.org now. Very well structured and differentiated learning.

    I have heard Kahn academy is very good and apparently will always be free due to Bill Gates support.

    Used to use Manga High. They started charging. Now I only use it if I'm covering a free class and the teacher hasn't left any work.

    Hi would these sites cater for primary level or post primary? I have been given a 1st year numeracy class and I am looking for resources for them.
