Momma Rabbit Posted March 2, 2012 Share Posted March 2, 2012 I am wanting to play some math games with my son to practice more on his addition facts. We have been using math u see alpha & I really like it a lot, but there is no way he will want to do more seatwork. Does anyone have suggestions?

serendipitous journey Posted March 2, 2012 Share Posted March 2, 2012 I am wanting to play some math games with my son to practice more on his addition facts. We have been using math u see alpha & I really like it a lot, but there is no way he will want to do more seatwork. Does anyone have suggestions? Do you have the MUS songbook and CD? We did learning wrap-ups with alpha. Also, "jumping math" where I pick a set of facts (+9, for ex.) and he jumps off something for every answer.

Bloggermom Posted March 2, 2012 Share Posted March 2, 2012 The best thing we have for memorizing addition facts is Math Rider. I know Big Brainz is also coming out with an Addition Attack. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KristenR Posted March 3, 2012 Share Posted March 3, 2012 I like this math game that requires nothing more than your hands and fingers. You can tweak it for odd/even, add or sub, and eventually start multiplication. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SnMomof7 Posted March 4, 2012 Share Posted March 4, 2012 Yep, I can :). Are you looking for facts drill mainly, or something more conceptual? Drill, all four operations - Math Evolve, Math Bingo More conceptual - Adding Apples, Subtracting Sardines, Multiplying Acorns If you need counting/simple numeracy apps - Pirate Dano and the Numbers, Numberland are both really good.
