Hi Ryan - Thanks for your comment! I'm so glad that this blog post was useful for you. All of these ideas are classroom-tested, and I hope you get a chance to try it out with some students of your own someday. I find that most math concepts can be taught through games and explorations, and the students are having so much fun, they don't realize how much they're also learning. Until you make them reflect on the process, that is. :) Best of luck with your coursework!
