I'm tutoring a 4th grade student in math. He understands concepts really well, but has not memorized his basic facts, so that slows him up a bit. Since we're working on his speed and fluency, I've been searching for free online games for him that put a fun aspect to the "drill and kill." I've added them to the links under "Student Games" so you can easily find them again.
Some of these games have versions that are appropriate for many differing levels. Check them out.
Math Mayhem: Basic Facts Add, Subtract, Multiply or Divide
