What is your opinion of math? Math, you say? What do I care about math? I had
to take it in school, but I am beyond that now. Math no longer applies to my
life. On the other side of the coin, there are those that find math to be
exciting, exhilarating, and the time of their lives. It does apply to their
lives and they can’t wait to use it. This second opinion, however, is the
minority. Most people find that math is work. It is confusing, complicated and
totally unnecessary. Is this you? The problem with this kind of thinking is that
it isn’t true. Math is necessary, from the simplest addition and subtraction to
more difficult geometry and physics. Math applies to life and we cannot live
without it.
So, with that established, where do we go from here? If math is dull, boring
and tedious, how can it matter? Well, the truth is, it doesn’t have to be. Math
can be fun, exciting and something to look forward to. How? How can math
possibly be fun? Well, have you ever played a game? Sure, you have. Was it fun?
Of course it was. Would you ever like to play another game again? If the answer
is, “Yes”, then I have hope for you when it comes to math. There are games out
there that are just as much fun and teach you all you need to know to succeed in
math. Have you ever played Dominoes or Hangman? Have you ever played cards or
board games? I know a way to adapt these well-known games to math, and I know a
great many more games that do the same thing. You will find yourself having so
much fun that you will wonder where the time has gone.
For games that not only will teach you to succeed in math, but will have you
having so much fun that you don’t even realize that you are learning, go
