Developing Fluency through Activities, Games, Magic Tricks, Puzzles & Problems
Foster delight, develop children's basic math skills and engage them in higher-level thinking with these hands-on activities, games, magic tricks, puzzles, and problems.
The aim of this presentation is to discuss how we get children to play, experiment, and explore — and in the process do many computations and calculations. We present some of our favorite problems and offer some insights into why we selected them.
