Make Everyday MATH Decks!
Fluency with math facts to 20 is an expectation of the standards for primary age students. Most students need practice to strengthen their math fact skills. Using games helps to increase motivation and provide students with the opportunity to use and practice their math skills and concepts. Common materials will be used to create a “specialized” math deck that parents will be able to take with them. Games will be taught and played so that participants are ready to play them at home with their children.
