3D Educational Fun! (PreK-3rd)

While preparing to teach a 3D Smart Board class, I came across Knowledge Adventure, a fabulous site with educational games--some look 3D! Choose games for Math, Reading, Spelling, Science, Animals, and Phonics. Although tabs include PreK through 2nd grade, some games go beyond those grades. Quick Calculate includes multiplication, for instance, and Word and Spelling Games include words beyond 2nd grade. Students will just love saving aliens from a vortex by adding their numbers up to equal a given number on the teleport pod in the Addingtons. Knowledge Adventure would be perfect for a center with the Smart Board!
