Free Online Math Drills with Progress Reports

5 Mar

Our family’s college kids – and anyone who has had to figure out a calculation at a cash register – will tell us that it’s handy to be able to figure out basic math facts quickly.  It’s nice to be able to blurt out (or silently add up) the answers within seconds.  Knowing our math facts will not only save us money at the register, but knowing the facts quickly will also save college kids and their parents a lot of money as exams often have time limits!  I found free online math drills to help us out with our speed and memorization.

The free online math drills are at XtraMath, a non-profit that offers the free math drills for homeschool or classroom students.  You input the student’s names and choose the drill sets.  The child works through the drills after a placement test. And you’re then able to access progress reports for your students.

Free Online Math Drills

How to Use These Free Online Math Drills:

Here are the steps we took today as I reviewed these online math drills with my child:

  1. Sign up as a parent (you can use your Google or Facebook log in, or create a new sign in ID)
  2. Add a Child (no email or information needed, and you can give a nickname for your child.  I called mine “A” when testing the site) and select their grade.
  3. Click Sign In as Child from your parent account.
  4. The child will do a Placement Quiz (we did the first one — 3 sets of addition facts)
  5. The child will play “race the teacher, Mr. C.” for any missed facts (this felt long to my modern-attention-span child; it was about 50 questions)
  6. “Mr. C” will then say “That’s the end of today’s lesson,” and the child is done.
  7. You’ll see the results and progress in your teacher account.
  8. When your student signs in again, she’ll complete the next placement test, or continue with the next set of online math drills.

How to Access the Free Online Math Drills:
