Imogen reports:

The fourth graders all made math games to play at math night. They worked on them for a very long time. Parents, students, siblings, Debra (the math teacher),  Dan, Tara, and Deborah (the fourth grade teacher) were at family math night. Debra the Lower School Math Teacher has helped arrange the math night, like she has done many years in the past. Multiplication, Division, addition, subtraction, and fractions were incorporated into the math games. While making the math games we improved on our math facts.

A few days after math night we played each others games in our classrooms. We played games that we didn’t get the chance to play at math night. We went around and and played each others games. I was surprised that there were so many different ideas and not one was alike any other. The math games were educational as well as fun! Some math games were harder than others.

Some made board games others made ball games and some made card games. Some math games were, Math Bowling, Multiplication Chutes and Ladders, Math skeeball, and more! The fourth graders had two months to make the math game. I think the math games are a very important part of the 4th grade year.
