My Project

“Play is our brain’s favorite way of learning.” ~ Diane Ackerman

Young people love to play games but did you know that they have many benefits for elementary students beyond just being fun?

Math games help foster excitement about math and build a love of math in our students. They offer students opportunities to explore number concepts, such as counting, one-to-one correspondence, and computation strategies. Playing games strengthens strategic mathematical thinking as students find different strategies for solving problems and deepen their understanding of numbers. The conversations that preschoolers have during play help promote math talk and communication between students.

This project will supply math games for my Preschool students so that they can dig into deep mathematical concepts in a playful way.

This project will directly impact historically underfunded classrooms.
