It started when I taught math and wanted to provide kids with opportunities to work on various skills on their own or with a partner when they had free time or after they&#8217;d completed their assignments. Eventually they became part of an independent box of activities I called Math Path. I can still see them smiling, rummaging through the box looking for games they wanted to play again and again. I guess I&#8217;d done OK creating that box!<\/p>\n<p><strong>To date I have about 20 free games available on my website in the <a href=\"http:\/\/paddyeger.com\/index.php\/resources\/math-games\">Downloads section of Educating America<\/a> and also the free\u00a0 teacher-parent site: \u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong><a href=\"https:\/\/teachersnotebook.com\/shop\/PaddyEger\"> http:\/\/www.Teachersnotebook.com\/Paddy Eger<\/a><br \/>\n<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>My games cover basic computation and require anywhere from 5-15 minutes. They use basic math tools like paper, pencils, dice, playing cards, a few spinners and a few game boards that you are free to copy. Most of the games are partner games but you might be able to adapt some for individual play. I have also shared the level of difficulty as easy, moderate or difficult.<\/p>\n<p>If you try the games with your family or in a classroom, I&#8217;d appreciate your feedback.
