Continuing on math journey, I intentionally find and purchase board games and card games that utilize mathematics concepts. Some days I just set these games out for the kids to discover and play, and other days I am more intentional. I create time and space for us to play these games. Amazon is a great place to find games, but I have found searching for games at thrift stores has been extremely successful. I find a game for $2 with all its pieces to bring home. We may play it once or twice before deciding it is not for us and donating it back, but most times these games become tried and true favorites.
The bonus of thrift shopping provides the opportunity to use the living math discussed last week. We can use our cash to find treasures or pieces for a project or desired experiment.
