Description:
NEW in 2026–27: Math Club 1b/c for 2nd & 3rd grades!
Fun games and healthy competition will help second- and third-grade students gain speed and accuracy with basic math facts. Students will engage in spatial reasoning, logic, number sense, various hands-on applied math activities, and inspiring read-aloud stories with mathematical themes.
Math Club 1b/c will emphasize foundational attitudes and habits of learning math. Frequently used terms, math concepts, and shapes are introduced to students through math story books, games, drawing, paper folding, and other activities. Students learn to make simple math tools using every-day materials. Students are encouraged to create their own math stories by drawing and writing down math expressions to cultivate the habit of thinking and writing steps in order. Activities are designed to help students develop higher-order thinking including pattern analysis, multi-step problem solving with real-world connections, and geometric reasoning. This class meets every week, and there are no prerequisites.
This course does not replace the student’s main, traditional math class but rather serves to deepen and enrich the student’s understanding and appreciation of math. This class has no homework. (For information about Bluebonnet’s full course offerings for 1st- through 3rd-grade math, see here.)
