Math Via The Costco Connection

By | August 9, 2015

As the school year begins for many families, the Costco Connection magazine is filled with back-to-school items. One article that caught my eye was entitled Math + fun = success.

Laura Overdeck, a mother of three from New Jersey, has created a non-profit “that delivers nightly math stories to tens of thousands of parents.” (p. 98, The Costco Connection for August 2015)

Her bedtime stories are contained in her bedtimemath.org blog, plus she’s created 3 books in support of her ideas (available at Costco). She’s also created You Tube math exercises and started Crazy 8s Math Clubs while gathering over 70,000 subscribers! I think a peek at what she’s doing might be a great idea for families as well as educators.
