JennyD Posted September 25, 2015 Share Posted September 25, 2015 We have been doing "math games Fridays" to great success this year. However, I could use some more games in the rotation, especially for my fifth grader. We have: Muggles/Knockout Quoridor Mastermind for Kids Rush Hour Sequence Any suggestions? I could also use some games that incorporate multiplication facts for my second grader. Thanks! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kalusignan Posted September 25, 2015 Share Posted September 25, 2015 Maybe check out RightStart's Math Card Games book? Also, the book Games for Math by Peggy Kaye is excellent for elementary. Their Fast Track games is great for any math fact practice. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kareni Posted September 25, 2015 Share Posted September 25, 2015 Equate will really stretch your brain! My husband plays it with his math tutoring students. Here is a link to the Conceptual Math Media Equate Advanced Tiles ) He also likes Krypto which is good for all four of the basic math functions. There is also a supplement: Krypto Fraction Supplement to Original Krypto Card Deck And Math Dash: Addition and Subtraction and Math Dash Game: Multiplication & Division This looks like a fun math game, but I've no firsthand experience with it: Mathino: Cool math games for kids Some games that promote logical thinking: Quarto Iota SET Stratego You might also take a look at Logic Links from MindWare. There are four book levels, A through D. There is also a boxed set of puzzles. That link is here. Balance Benders from Critical Thinking Company are puzzles in book form.

JennyD Posted September 26, 2015 Author Share Posted September 26, 2015 These are fantastic suggestions -- thank you all so much! I am making a list and checking them all out. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Farrar Posted September 27, 2015 Share Posted September 27, 2015 Seconding most of these suggestions. 24 is my favorite. Back when I was teaching, I used to run a 24 tournament most years. The Right Start games are definitely more elementary than middle and up... 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kerileanne99 Posted September 27, 2015 Share Posted September 27, 2015 Kareni- Never realized there was a fraction set to go with Krypto! Thanks:) We like many listed above, dd really likes Prime Climb at the moment in particular. I didn't see Albert's Insomnia listed but it is another good one, plus Mythematical Battles... 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dmmetler Posted November 13, 2015 Share Posted November 13, 2015 Visit the MathCounts website-lots of resources there. If you have at least four kids, you can sign up for the math club in a box, which gives materials to make/do several games, too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AndyJoy Posted November 15, 2015 Share Posted November 15, 2015 My middle school students enjoyed SMATH. It would work for a 2nd grader too.http://www.amazon.com/Pressman-Toy-5200-06-Smath/dp/B00004NKL3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
