Maths Dictionary for Kids
Age Range: 7-14 (approximately)
ClickSchooling list member Annette Hall recommended today’s website that provides a Math Dictionary for kids. There’s a definition, explanation, and illustrated example of every math term from “Abacus to Zero.”
When you get to the site you’ll see that terms are sorted in alphabetical order. So, if you want to know about acute triangles (for example), simply click on the letter “Aa” of the Math Dictionary. A list of math terms beginning with the letter “A” will pop up. Then search the list for “acute triangle” and click on it. A definition pops up on the screen with an illustrated example, and info on other types of triangles as well.
The explanations are simple and the illustrations are colorful and
eye-catching — making it very appealing to kids of all ages. This is a
terrific resource to use to introduce new terminology or refresh your memory about math terms you may have forgotten.
