Product Description
The traditional method for teaching math-memorizing rules to get answers-does not help children develop number logic. Without number logic most children are not able to understand more difficult and more complex number relationships. This book gives teaches a powerful tool to help develop math logic. Logic that is constructed by thinking, not by merely following someone else's directions to solve a problem. Early Childhood Math Games contains 25 original number games that a teacher can assemble and use immediately with students. The author shows how playing math games not only enables young children to make their own natural abilities to think, but encourages the interaction that is necessary for the development of logico-mathematical thinking. The math games provide teachers with a daily, invaluable observation instrument that can be used in the classroom to assess children's strengths and weaknesses. The games were all designed to be easily prepared and used with children and includes a variety of types of games along with different versions of the same game. Elementary school educators.

Wonderful book for using games instead of worksheets for learning addition,subtraction, multiplication and division. Each game gives a version for younger or older children. There are cover-up games, money games, outdoor games, and children's story games. some supplies are provided in the book others are easily made. Very good book for game ideas.
