Voices from the Field

The AfterSchool KidzMath program is currently being implemented in more than 700 sites, serving over 20,000 children.

Here’s what people are saying:

The Right Balance of Fun and Learning

The involvement of children during the development of the AfterSchool KidzMath materials has resulted in the right balance of fun and learning for our programs.

Reinforcing Skills the Right Way

AfterSchool KidzMath has helped us strengthen our curriculum in the after-school program and enhance our credibility with school districts. We are reinforcing children’s math skills in a way that is fun and tailored specifically to the after-school program. With the games and literacy component, it’s a great way to teach the whole child and reinforce our core values of caring, honesty, respect, and responsibility.

Children Get the Math

What is wonderful about AfterSchool KidzMath is that it proves that if we create an experience that is fun and involves a complex [set] of skills, the children get the math.

Reinforcing Math Concepts Through Games

We love AfterSchool KidzMath because the kids are now comprehending more about what they’re learning in school. They might not get a concept when a teacher is standing at the board, but when we see how it fits into a game, and they’re working in small groups, they
get it.

Showing Math in Different Ways

When our fourth-graders were having trouble with multiplication, we tried Multiplication Basketball. They were really into the physical aspect of it, and they learned a lot. The different ways we can show them how to do math, the more they do, and the more they learn.
