About Maths Magic Games series:
outcomes-based educational maths games (O.B.E.)
Each game is played by 2 people. There are 5 games per phase (foundation, intermediate & senior) but, as conceptual levels are often very different in a class, games from different phases can be used in one classroom.
The games teach fundamental concepts like adding one on to a number, to practising tables and multiple calculations; there are also 2 games specifically designed to enhance spatial skills (geometric concepts). The pupils learn by having fun - in playing the game, the outcomes are achieved. The conceptual levels and the outcomes achieved are neatly displayed on the "i" info pop-up of the game for the teachers records so as to give the teacher more time to attend to weaker pupils needs.
As most the games are dice-driven (chance), a weaker pupil can easily play with another (even adult) without continually losing, as in games where mathematical aptitude defines the winner. Also, the games take about 5-10 mins to play so are an easy filler for those who have finished work early.
