Practice Math and Literacy at a Fun-Filled Event with Friends and Family!

A Math & Movement Family Fun Night is a high-energy math and reading event that increases parental engagement. Children use fun floor mats and wall charts to learn math and reading concepts through movement. The event boosts students’ confidence in math and reading skills – and parents have fun, too! Family Fun Nights are great for kids of all ages–from preschool through middle school. Individual events can be tailored to specific age or ability groups.

In-person Family Fun Nights are now only available with our full day, in-person workshop bundle or if you are in an approved county for sponsorship.

Sample Event Structure

Set Up

1 hour

Your Math & Movement Consultant will arrive at your event location with all of the Family Fun Night Materials – over 30 stations. The Consultant and volunteers will set up and tape down all floor mats. Volunteers are encouraged to assist in set up if possible.

Volunteer Training

1 hour

Volunteers are trained in how to operate the stations and lead activities before the event begins. Volunteers are generally teachers and staff from your school. Local High School students can also be great volunteers. 

 

Family Fun Night

1 hour

Students and their families will arrive to a gymnasium filled with fun stations to explore. They will work through the stations together, learning as they go! Activity guides are provided for schools who wish to make copies for families. 

Clean Up

30 minutes

Your Math & Movement Consultant and volunteers will remove all tape from the floors and pack up the stations at the conclusion of the event.
