Math Monsters Magic is a tabletop fantasy driven roleplaying game I designed to get students very engaged with developing detailed characters, rich stories, and of course, make inspired art that they are excited about. They must also add and subtract numbers under 15 each turn of the game.
This game is intended for kids 8+, and made to be a classroom-appropriate approach to gameplay that inspires voice and choice within the subjects of math and literacy.
M*M*M's simplified version is suitable for children 4 and up, of all abilities, with the help of the right teacher.
About the Author of M*M*M
My hometown is Columbus, NE, which is 2 hours west of Omaha. I attended Central Community college there and transferred to a 4 year university. I graduated from the Fine Art Program at the University of Nebraska-Lincoln in 2011. I moved to Colorado in 2015 to attend Metropolitan State University. I have completed the Art Education program and student teaching. I am a STEAM and TAB experienced teacher with expertise in art, and building substitute open to work in the greater Twin Cities area. I am currently residing in Shakopee, MN. In my free time I enjoy time outdoors, make art, have 2 black cats- and 2 thriving fish tanks, and play many games including Dungeons and Dragons.
I hope that young artists and storytellers use their skills to solve problems creatively and find empathy in telling stories in a language that is whatever they imagine. I developed this game with the help of teachers, writers, and many a students' worth of thrown away blank copy paper from at least several school districts. Enjoy how excited students who succeed in playing M*M*M are with only a paper, a pencil, and a randomizing tool.
Sincerely - Thank You,
