App similar to IXL?

We really like the accessibility and clean look of IXL. DD enjoys using it and is a happy, enthusiastic child.
However Ixl rather than just mark an answer as incorrect, deducts points and then gives her even more questions to do. This is really demotivating. She is in year 5 and soon to be year 6. Any suggestions really welcomed.
Thank you.

Times Table Rockstars or Hit The Button. Both are popular with my DC.

You could try the mathswithmum website as it has video lessons with worksheets and some online practice questions for lots of topics Smile

Watching with interest as we have found the same with IXL. After three years and a few emails to them, we have decided not to renew. My kids just get too disheartened by it, especially if they get one wrong when they have a smart score in the high 90s. I love how comprehensive the lessons are and we have found that once they've covered something on the site, they have a really good grasp of it, but it's got to the point where they hate maths and that's a shame because they didn't feel that way beforehand!

We have bought a few workbooks for a change and will look at the videos on Khan Academy and see where we go from there. Mine are Y8, Y6 and Y3.
