Description
These five games are a great way for kids to practise their mathematical skills, while socialising and having fun! The activities are designed for students to play with partners, in some cases up to four players. The only requirements are dice, a deck of cards and 20 counters, to play all five games.
Although they are design as multiplication practice, all of the games have the option for use as addition practice as well. Use these games as an early finisher task or a transition from one lesson to the next.
Vendor Information
After 20+ years of teaching in primary and secondary schools, Juliette Watts (née Lovius) realised traditional classrooms often fail to support many children, causing them to feel 'dumb' for not achieving in standardised assessments.
Seeking to understand more about challenging educational contexts, Juliette earned two Masters Degrees in Human Rights and Education, and International Development Education. Her research took her to Ireland, The Netherlands and East Africa, where she explored how children’s brains can adapt and learn even in traumatic situations.
In 2011, she founded Lovius Educational Consultancy, creating Flourish Tutoring - a program harnessing the brain's ability to form new connections to help struggling children succeed and build self-esteem. Now based in Australia, Juliette works with schools, families and communities, focusing on non-traditional educational strategies.
The resources Juliette creates for Lovius Educational Consultancy are rigorously researched and repeatedly tested in classrooms. Her goal is to support teachers to provide meaningful and differentiated learning opportunities with maximum effect on students and minimal drain on teacher time.
