Math Before Bed
The benefits of reading stories to our children at nighttime have been shared countless times over and for good reason. Reading improves literacy skills. Why is it that we don’t do math with our children before bed?
Math Before Bed is a collection of prompts that can inspire mathematical discussions that you and your children can have before bed, at dinner, or anytime. Each prompt on this site shows you and your child a perplexing problem. Sometimes there is one right answer and sometimes there are many right answers. The purpose of each question is to generate a discussion about HOW you determined an answer. If you find one answer, try to find another. You could complete one prompt a night, or many prompts. https://mathbeforebed.com/
The mission of the Warren County School District is to support the personal and intellectual success and wellness of every student, every day.
