Let's Play Math Club is designed for upper elementary and middle school learners who want to become mathematical thinkers. Whether you love math, hate math, or are somewhere in between, this class is for you! In this class, learners will learn math strategies to help them see that math is all around us. Learners will interact with the teacher and each other through games, puzzles and problem-solving together. As we continue to play with math, the goal is to help remove the anxiety and fear of doing math. All the activities will allow learners to implement the standards for mathematical practice, such as: Make sense of problems & persevere in solving them Reason abstractly & quantitatively Construct viable arguments & critique the reasoning of others Model with mathematics Use appropriate tools strategically Attend to precision Look for & make use of structure Look for & express regularity in repeated reasoning The structure of the class will change from week to week but will include some of the following: - Math Journal - Student Share - Warm-Up Activity - Math/Logic Games such as Chess, The Game 24, Sudoku, Virtual Board Games - Simple Projects The goal is to change up the pace from whatever they were learning at school or at home to help create a love for mathematics. Below is a sample outline of the classes. Again, each class is customized to the learners.
