 This month's free Brick Math Lesson of the Month is about Square Numbers. You may surprised to discover that it's from the Brick Math Counting and Cardinality curriculum. "Square numbers being taught so early?" you might think. Yes! Square numbers are introduced as students are learning the concepts of counting and cardinality. To get this lesson, click here, and you'll also get a new free Brick Math lesson every month after that.  Early math learning involves developing number sense, as well as building familiarity with math vocabulary. Students at this stage are not yet learning what it means for a number to be squared; rather, they are learning to recognize patterns in the brick models they build, which lays the groundwork for more advanced math understanding later, in addition and multiplication. This lesson is a small but very meaningful step towards building math fluency.  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. Brick Math 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.
