This month's free Brick Math Lesson of the Month is a game for students to play that reinforces multiplication terminology and skills. You can get the Blocks and Bricks Game, from Brick Math Multiplication, by clicking here, and you'll get a new free Brick Math lesson every month after that. The Blocks and Bricks Game is played in pairs. Each student rolls a die twice, first to establish their multiplier and then their multiplicand. They then build blocks representing the multiplier and fill them with bricks representing the multiplicand. The directions for the game are given for the teacher to explain in the Teacher Lesson Plans and then given to the student in the Student Workbook Pages. The Blocks and Bricks Game is a fun, non-competitive way for students to practice simple multiplication facts and their knowledge of multiplication vocabulary. It's a great summer activity to keep students enjoying math! Brick Math is a complete math curriculum for kindergarten through 8th grade that models the math with bricks. The curriculum is divided into 13 separate content areas: Counting, Addition, Subtraction, Multiplication, Division, Basic Fractions, Basic Measurement, Fraction Multiplication, Fraction Division, Advanced Measurement and Geometry, Decimals, Data and Statistics, and Pre-Algebra. Students can start anywhere in the curriculum. It can be used as a complete math curriculum or brought in as a supplement to help students who aren't having math success with other programs. Brick Math works in many applications: for homeschooling, math intervention, enrichment, and as a whole-school program. Materials are simple and affordable. If you are a math teacher or a parent with a student at home who is learning K-8th grade math, check brickmath.com. The website includes videos for both teacher training and direct instruction of students.
