Math is much more
than numbers
and
Mad About Math is full of things to see, ideas to ponder
and advice to make learning math a whole lot easier. While covering shapes, estimation, patterns, problem solving, measurement, time
and money, students discover they’ve been using math skills since before they could
talk and that their toys were their earliest math lessons. Keith Michael Johnson developed this program using math standards in MA, RI and CT—it’s an entertaining,
motivating and curriculum-based presentation for elementary school. It’s not another math lesson, it’s a
“here’s why” mathapalluza! |

In prior years,
KMJ has presented: Science Isn’t Always
Pretty, Wild about Weather and Amazing
Americans. He will present
Mad About
Math
(approx. 50 minutes) in the Café:
8:30
Kindergarten, Gr. 1-2
9:45
Gr. 3-5
Since MAD ABOUT MATH premiered a couple of years ago, it's been very, very popular
- thanks to our new found educational emphasis on math. Teachers appreciate
Keith's unique "take" on the topic and often wonder if he started out as a math
teacher! What a shock when they learn that for six years in elementary school,
three times a week, Keith worked with a special-ed teacher. That was just
to keep up with the rest of the kids in his "regular" class. His math-passion
is genuine, his enthusiasm apparent and all his shows are guaranteed!
