Ask any teacher or coach, and you are told that becoming an expert requires practice, practice, and more practice.  ELC offers rich, varied, and multiple practice resources to help students become proficient in mathematics topics.  With ELC, students can practice online with digital practice sheets, offline with downloadable and printable worksheets, or use ELC eWorkbook for additional offline practice.

Practicing math regularly with ELC has several benefits, including:

  1. Improving understanding: Repeatedly working through math problems helps to solidify the concepts and make them more understandable.
  2. Improving problem-solving skills: By practicing math problems, students develop the ability to analyze information, identify relevant information, and use logical reasoning to find solutions.
  3. Building numerical fluency: Consistent practice with math concepts and operations helps to improve students’ understanding and proficiency with numbers, making it easier for them to perform calculations quickly and accurately.
  4. Enhancing memory and retention: Repeatedly applying math concepts and strategies helps to reinforce learning, making it more likely that students will remember what they have learned.
  5. Improving confidence: Students can build confidence in their math abilities by successfully solving math problems, leading to a better attitude toward the subject.
  6. Preparation for real-world application: Many jobs and everyday situations require mathematical skills, such as budgeting, calculating measurements, etc.  Practicing math helps to develop those skills, making them more readily available in everyday life.
  7. Improving test-taking skills: Math tests often require students to recall and apply concepts they have learned.  By practicing math problems, students can become more familiar with the format and types of questions on the test, which can help reduce test anxiety.
  8. Enhancing cognitive function: Math is a complex subject that challenges the brain in many ways.  By practicing math, people are developing their brain’s ability to multitask, focus, and do complex calculations, improving overall cognitive function.

ELC online practice offers unlimited attempts to practice with immediate feedback and solutions.  The questions are generated algorithmically so a student can practice multiple times without any repeating questions.  Online practice sheets are scored automatically with immediate feedback, helping students quickly identify where they need further improvements.

ELC offers downloadable and printable practice sheets for additional offline practice.  The offline worksheets can be printed without answers, with answers and solutions, giving students quick feedback offline.
