Use a set of dice to add, subtract, multiply and divide. Check out Barnes and Noble, teacher’s supply store or a comic book store for 10 or 12 sized dice. Create games — we do the roll the 10 sided dice and use multiplication — first one to a set number (we like 500) wins, but the same game can be played with addition (or subtraction) with a lower number (150 is good) — but if you get the answer wrong, your wrong number is subtracted !!!!
Keep the games short and simple. Better to play 3 rounds of a short game than to frustrate them with one long game.
Get a set of number dominos (9 or 15 depending on skill level — Walmart has them for just a few dollars). Play regular dominos but you have to add / subtract/ multiply (decide on which way you are playing) before you play your piece.
We also play License Plate math. My kids will call a color (red, blue, green, etc). Then they add (or multiply) the numbers in the license plate of those colored cars / trucks. Most points at the end of the errand wins.
Check out a book called ” Games for Math” by Peggy Kaye (check your local library). Great quick, fun games.
Get a couple of the age appropriate computer games — Jump Start and Math Blaster are great. You can probably get them for around $10 at stores like Office Depot.
Just have fun with it — incorporate math into your day.
Also, if you are willing to shell out $20 for a 1 year membership, I would highly recommend http://www.edhelper.com/ – you can view and use a many free items now, but this site is well worth the $.
