This program is for Kindergarten-3rd grade students who struggle, students who love math and everyone in-between. We adjust the games for each student to decrease frustration and stress, so they can build confidence and help them master facts at their current level first and then grow to new levels of understanding and mastery.
Parents will be given some simple games, on the participants only webpage, that they can play at home with common items like paper and pencil, a deck of cards, and/or dice. All of these games will also require minimal prep time, if any at all. This way the fun and learning can continue beyond the Math Club.
