My Project

When it comes to math, many students struggle! They do not have a good sense of numbers and what they mean. They need to see math as something that they CAN learn and something that can be FUN!

For this project, I am requesting a variety of math games to help improve my students' number sense.

These games will give my students the practice they need in a fun and challenging way. It's all about an active, enjoyable experience. Clever characters, hilarious rules and fun surprises make math games exciting! When kids love a math game, they focus all their attention on actively engaging in math. The best way to master math is to do it so much it becomes second nature. Calculations become a no-brainer.

I hope to use these games with my small group for math intervention as well as "Fun Friday" activities for my whole class! Thanks for helping my students see that math can be fun!
