    Ted ed

    TED ED Also should check out Khan Academy. It was profiled on 60 minutes. It is an awesome site, especially to help out kids with math skills. My son used it to help him with Algebra(he does not have CF). My daughter with Cf has used it to help with Multiplication tables. This site is FREE.
