The purpose of this resource is to provide educators with classroom tested lessons that allow students to investigate mathematics from playing common video games. Games in all forms, electronic or not, can provide intrinsic motivation as a part of the learning environment. Internal motivation and the learning context are central to education, particularly in learning mathematics (NCTM, 2000; Ma, Xin, Kashor, & Nand, 1997; Sedig, 2008). Research supports the belief that games and the "act of play" have a positive effect on student motivation and retention of knowledge than conventional...

Students of all ages often struggle with mathematics concepts, and might even cringe when they hear the word fraction. The purpose of this workbook is to increase conceptual development of fraction concepts and computations through hands-on investigations that contextualize the mathematics. Pattern Blocks(r) are familiar manipulatives in the elementary classroom, frequently used for teaching geometry and measurement content. In this book, students investigate fraction tasks through area or region models with Pattern Blocks(r). The use of area models will help students visualize parts of the...
