[LM_NET] TAR: ELEM TECH Suggestions for Math Software

[Erin White <bookwrangler@GMAIL.COM>]

Hi, all -

I checked the archives for a HIT: on this topic.  I found lots of targets,
but not a lot of lists, so I apologize in advance for asking a question that
seems to come up about once a year.  I promise to post a HIT:.

Our district passed a technology bond (thankfully!) and we are in the midst
of a major network overhaul.  We're moving from Windows 98 machines on a
Novell Network, to Windows XP (eventually Vista conversion) on a Windows
based Network.  It's been really fascinating to be involved (in small ways)
on this process.

One of the difficulties that we are having is that a lot of our current,
antiquated software just won't run on these new powerful machines.  We've
got a little bit of money to purchase new titles.

Does anyone have any really great math software that they'd recommend for a
K-4 environment?  We are primarily looking for an operations drill to
replace TurboMath Facts (doesn't run on XP), but I'd be all for suggesting
something with a little more meat to it.  It needs to be something that will
run on XP.

Thanks again for any advice you have!

Erin.
