Extensive, expensive, math game
The Math Game includes 16 decks of cards and 18 game boards, and 3 video tapes among the 14 needed game pieces. The math skills that this game teach range from whole numbers to basic equations. Players are guaranteed to reach a state of flow while learning at the same time. I wonder if this game could be part of the answer to the math crisis we now have in our public school system and also whether this game could be adapted to include higher lever math skills? Yet if the authors really want to help students, why does it cost so much? ($229.95) The poor keep getting....poorer.
