I am a new teach...I agree with what you are saying. I am a new teacher and do not have very much experience with implementing math games into the classroom however, I have implemented some Math games and had the same reaction from the students. I noticed that the students just want to play the game but they do not necessarily make the connection to learning a math concept. I think that games can be a great way to encourage math learning however, I think that they need to be implemented slowly. For instance, when focusing on a particular math concept implement one game that the students can participate in and as a teacher, explain what they are doing and how it relates back to the math topic being addressed.<br />Just an idea, I am also curious to hear from someone with a bit more experience implementing math games.Jamie Leehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00502607092669758725noreply@blogger.com
