The first is a site where you can make up your own math worksheets. As a primary teaching tool, it's great for elementary kids. As a "mad math" minute review tool for older students, it also works really well. I find they need the review, particularly in decimals and fractions.
The second site is wonderfully organized. If a student is having problems in a particular area, it's easy to find topical practice on this site. It is also interactive with the teaching and assessing, which allows the student to move through as they progress in their knowledge. This may be my favorite site for students who can motivate themselves, as they are not needlessly held back waiting for teacher approval to move forward.
The third site is great fun. It is full of games for all kinds of math up to the pre-algebra level. If the students are playing a game, they hardly notice they are learning at the same time. Easy engagement. It's amazing how they think of time on this site as a "reward" for doing their "schoolwork."
