One of the best ways to help kids be better at math is to do math together with them. It’s fun, too!

Each MathStart title includes a two-page section at the back called “For Adults and Kids,” with activity ideas designed to reinforce the skills featured in the stories. We have included three from each book on the Activity Ideas page. As a bonus, sprinkled throughout the lists are also some wonderful ideas sent in by teachers and booksellers.

If you have ideas for math activities you would like to share, please send them along to: feedback@stuartjmurphy.com. Thanks!

Downloadable Activity Pages have been such a popular feature for our free e-newsletter, we have given them their own section on the website. You can print out individual pdf's to make photocopies, or forward the page to teachers and parents.

Eventually, there will be pdf's for every MathStart title, so check back to see what’s been added!
