Early Mental Math: 6 Ways to Play Math with Primary Students

Early Mental Math features 6 easy-to-learn games for primary and middle-grade students.

Math games build mental flexibility and strategic reasoning in players of all ages. And even people who hated math in school can enjoy the friendly challenge of a game.

These are NOT the typical memory-and-speed-based math games you’ve probably seen online, but true battles of wit and skill (plus a bit of luck).

Most of the games take only seconds to learn and less than 15 minutes to play, making them perfect ice-breakers for family gatherings, classroom warmups, or for launching a group game night.

You’ll love these strategic challenges for students and adult gamers. Easy to learn, quick to play! Who knew math could be so much fun?

Grab a deck of cards, a few dice, or markers and graph paper, and let’s play some math!

This 69-page printable (pdf) activity book includes instructions and tips for the teacher, math game pages in full-color and ink-saving black-and-white, plus a variety of dot-grid journaling paper.
