At a time when the poor math performance of American school children has labeled
us a "nation of underachievers," what can parents -- often themselves daunted by the mysteries
of mathematics -- do to help their children? In Games for Math, Peggy Kaye -- teacher
extraordinaire and author of the highly praised Games for Reading
gives parents more than fifty marvelous and effective ways to help their children learn math by doing
just what kids love best: playing games.
"This wise book can do much to help create a more math-literate generation. Games
for Math is peppered with the wisdom of common sense, and is an invitation to get parents
(and teachers) involved with children and math. A gem of a book."
Allan Shedlin, Jr., U.S. Dept. of Education Study Group on Elementary Education
