With step-by-step directions and suggestions for both teachers and parents, these books take the worry out of planning and conducting a Family Math Night at your school. Each book contains 40 engaging and inspiring activities, organized by grade level, along with lists of materials needed, helpful hints and connections to math standards.
The parents and students will get a description of the activity and directions, questions parents can ask and additional challenges. The activities in this book align with the NCTM content and process standards.
How does Family Math Night work?
• Invite parents to accompany their children to school for an evening event.
• Arrange a series of tables (“stations”) in a large room or in several classrooms.
• As shown in this book, prepare materials – easy-to-find and inexpensive - and set up an activity at each station.
• Parents and students visit some or all stations and engage in the activities together.
• Teachers encourage participation, offer assistance, and promote “math talk”.
