Are you looking for new ways to help your children learn math?
In a math journal, children explore their own ideas about numbers, shapes, and patterns through drawing or writing in response to a question.
Journaling encourages students to develop a rich mathematical mindset. Students begin to see connections and make sense of math concepts. They grow confident in their ability to think through new ideas.
312 Things To Do with a Math Journal includes number play prompts, games, math art, story problems, mini-essays, geometry investigations, brainteasers, number patterns, research projects, and much more. These activities work at any grade level, and most can be enjoyed more than once.
Pick up a copy of 312 Things To Do with a Math Journal and begin your family’s math journaling adventure today.

I enjoy appreciate the way the book is structured, making it easy to find something that connects with other maths resources being used or other subjects entirely! It is simple to adapt many of the activities for a range or primary and intermediate ages, and I can see that older kids (and adults!) as well would get so much out of using these prompts to deep dive into areas of interest and curiosity. Thank you!
This is a fresh easy to look at math and how to solve everyday problems. It is not drill and kill method of route memorization. It reminds me strongly of the Charlotte Mason theory of learning. (See more about her learning/ teaching style) I do not know if that was the author’s intent or not. I also enjoyed the break down of different skills to focus on. I would use this with homeschooled children or supplement in a classroom.I received a free copy of this book to review.
I had never thought about maths journaling before, but I plan to try out some of these ideas.An interesting read.
I really think this is fantastic! You could just about make a class out of all these great ideas to work with mathematics and help children to grasp concepts with a fun approach.Learning simple math can be boring and challenging for many and these ideas give them a chance to explore and think instead of just remembering how certain procedures are carried out. I would love to see more of this in our current curriculums!
