Virtual Manipulatives

Here is the site Professor Richardson demonstrated with virtual manipulatives.
National Library of Virtual Manipulatives
She also asked me to let you all know that the NC Council of Teachers of Mathematics (NCCTM) sponsors mini grants. As noted on the NCCTM grant information page:
A total of $15,000 is available each year for the mini-grants, with each region [of the state] awarding approximately $5000 in grants to its members. In recent years, approximately 30-35 proposals have been partially or fully funded, for an average grant of just less than $800.

Great Website

If anyone needs a great reading website, www.starfall.com/ is for you! It has four levels of instruction with the first level for a child who needs help with the ABC's and the sounds. My three-year old loves it.
