Online Square Root Problems from Softschools.com

Here, your child can practice finding square roots online. This site allows you to save paper and time by having the whole practice session take place on the computer. All you need is an Internet connection to make it work. One potential drawback is that the site is not always the easiest to navigate. This means it is sometimes more efficient to find what you want by searching the name of the site with the type of math problem you are looking for in a search engine.

Also, correct answers are not given when your child gets a wrong answer - there will simply be a tally of correct and incorrect answers. For this reason, SoftSchools.com may be most helpful for your child after he or she has gained some experience with square roots elsewhere.
