thowell Posted September 8, 2012 Share Posted September 8, 2012 Wow, the general boards move way too fast! I am looking for ideas to add in fun math to a 2 hour time in our day where we will do all things math. It can be puzzles, games, fun books, anything that will help them concentrate on math in a fun way. So throw any and all ideas you may have at me!

Shelsi Posted September 8, 2012 Share Posted September 8, 2012 My ds and I sometimes play Yahtzee instead of math for the day. It uses some multiplication, skip counting, and multi digit adding. Plus, I just love an excuse to play it, I love that game. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We'll start Miquon Orange when we're done going through all the task cards in our set. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
