Thank you for this resource list. Our Davidson Young Scholar has been taking iMacs since age 4 and EMF from age 9 and has really thrived and excelled with their curriculum. Highly recommend it!!
Educator on 3/31/2020
UnLock Math is used successfully both as a complete math curriculum, replacing classroom instruction, and as an intervention math to quickly bring struggling students who are behind up to grade level. Our unique approach keeps gifted students engaged while also helping a broad segment of students struggling with various learning issues. Our normal prices are $49/month or $299/year. during this turbulent time we have extended our 14 day free trial to 30 days to support students impacted by school closures. Our website is www.unlockmath.com

This is a very useful resource, thank you! Is there any way to tell which of these resources include a teaching component (for example, videos that walk students through the content first) and which are more self teach/worksheet type programs?
Educator on 12/23/2015
How about Think Through Math?
Parent on 2/14/2015
Any thoughts about mathhelp.com or yourteacher.com?

I was able to enroll my son in the open enrollment EPGY program at 3 years old. I don't believe they have an age limit for the open enrollment version.
Parent on 9/1/2010
EPGY courses are much less expensive ($135 for both math and language arts for one year) through the Open Enrollment program http://epgy.stanford.edu/district/ . Parents can find information about joining a group in the Davidson Gifted forum.

Our Davidson Young Scholar will need to use an online program for independent study of Algebra II at her public school this fall. I was able to use this chart to link to programs, quickly compare them, and choose the one that will best work for her.
