Strategy Games

We have started a list of links for strategy games because we believe that game playing teaches problem solving. Children will play and learn mathematical processes without realizing it.

The games that we have included are simple. They require few materials. Classic ones, such as "Battleships", can be played with only pen and paper. This is a material readily available in any classroom.

My links about games usually go to Wikipedia. This is for two reasons. Wikipedia will explain the rules and will include links to online versions of the games. If a child does not have a partner, they can play online.
