Ko's Journey

Here is another great resource we found. Granted, it was a little bit too advanced for my daughter, but she wanted to do it anyway. We learned together along the way.

Ko's Journey

This is interactive project-based math at it's best, and the story line is just golden for a lot of Middle School girls. I would recommend this for Fifth Grade level and above, and they can tailor it to grade level. I am also recommending it because my daughter hates most online learning sites, but she LOVED this. I would caution that it is not a long term math program, simply something to enrich your kids math learning experience.

The basis of the story is a Native American girl who must rejoin her tribe by going on a journey. Along the way she is joined by a wolf pup. Fractions are involved. Calculating velocity, amounts of herbs to put into a poultice, angles of light, and so on. We did this together and she was motivated to finish it within a month.
