This was an awesome class and really made me excited to use meaningful math games in my classroom this year. I appreciate it that we talked about setting norms and possible discussions with administrators as math games are used. Our instructor was wonderful and provided great feedback to keep us thinking.

This was the course I needed to inspire me and remind me about how valuable math games are in the classroom! I love the actionable assignments and bringing it straight into my classroom.

Very well organized and inspiring course. I felt motivated to try new games and puzzles in my classroom. Colleagues also tried out games and posted their reviews, allowing me to follow recommendations.
