School of Clowns

Little children all over the world like the circus. The favourite heros in the circus are clowns. Why? Because clowns are kind and funny. They make the world colourful and happy. Usually children have a lot of difficulties with the subject of math. We suppose that funny clowns can help them to understand math better. When students write math problems by themselves they understand math better than through the teacher's explanations. It is an especially useful way to work with the most difficult themes. Children do not pay attention to difficulties when they have fun. You can send us pictures, stories and math problems about clowns. 1st of April we will help all school-participant to organise a funny math party.

Facilitated by: Barbara Lialiagina in Russia.
