Too much clickbait!

Although it has suffered slightly as a result of adobe flash player shutting down, there are still lots of great games that can help students, especially elementary and middle-schoolers, to practice applications of math and critical thinking. Frankly, I would rather student play these games than just about any other video game. The only slight issue is the malware in the ads, but I use this as a learning tool to teach students to avoid getting scammed.

I don't think Coolmath Games is a good resource for teachers to use because most of the games students play do not teach or enforce math. If the goal is to have students practice math, other sites should be used. This resource has a variety of different games, however it does enforce much educational value to its users. I have used Coolmath as a student and none of the games I played were math related. Some of the popular games were Papa's Taco Mia or Sugar Sugar, both of which offer no educational value at all. If it were to be used as a resource tool, the teacher would have to closely monitor each student to ensure they are not playin games that don't contribute to learning.

You shouldn't use this unless your trying to just let your students play games.
