Looking for some new games to play over the holidays?  Try our PAL,  a collection of fun games intended to help reinforce mathematics at home. PAL is open to our entire school community, with an emphasis on primary /junior mathematical concepts. These aren’t flash cards- they are games that are fun for the whole family. Located in the school library, just look for the big blue sign.These days, math is taught as much more than simply memorizing 1+1=2; there are many ways to help your children learn mathematical concepts. Last year, thanks to the generosity of a Parents Reaching Out grant provided by the Ministry of Education, NLW School Council was able to create PAL – our Parent Activity Library. With input from our teachers, we assembled a collection of games and activities intended to help reinforce early mathematical concepts at home. These aren’t flash cards or rote memorization; some of these games may already be familiar to your family; many are probably new; and most can be enjoyed by a variety of ages and skill levels.
