Our professional development sessions are prepared and delivered by the developers of the MUGGINS! Math series. These highly interactive workshops are informative, easily understood and implemented, and fun and inspiring for new and veteran teachers alike. Our math games and manipulatives were created by educators for teachers and the students they teach. Our workshops have received only rave reviews from the thousands of teachers trained since the first staff development in 1997.
Research-based, data driven studies have proven the effectiveness of MUGGINS! Math games and manipulatives in developing algebraic reasoning skills, problem-solving, numeracy, operation sense, and self-confidence in math. These studies were published by Purdue University in Indiana Math Teacher and SUNY College at Brockport Center for Teaching, Learning Mathematics. Hands-on training in the use of the multi-leveled games and manipulatives ensures that the participants know the best teaching strategies to implement their use for inclusion and differentiation in the classroom. The workshops demonstrate how to use visual, kinesthetic, and experiential learning to develop number sense, algebraic reasoning, spatial sense, multi-step problem-solving, math proficiency, and conceptual understanding.
Participants in our workshops use grade-appropriate games and manipulatives tailored to the needs of the program. Likewise, schools/districts may opt for participants to leave the workshop with the materials and the expertise to successfully implement the program in their classrooms the very next day.

YouCubed.org, a highly acclaimed innovative program sponsored by Dr. Jo Boaler, Stanford University Professor of Mathematics Education, lists "MUGGINS!" among only 8 apps or games as resources for teaching math "visually & conceptually" without an emphasis on speed.
www.youcubed.org/muggins This was the best money I ever spent on a workshop! Math Coordinator, Virginia This was the best, most practical, beneficial workshop I have ever attended and I’ve been teaching for 27 years. I even learned some new information myself. Teacher, Texas Highest evaluation scores ever given for an in-service! Staff Development Coordinator, Indiana |
I have never seen my low level students get so excited about doing math. Thank you so much for sharing your materials and training with us!
Teacher, Illinois Great in-service! Will help a lot with students that don't understand concepts. Teacher, Ohio Muggins Math is best practices. Curriculum Specialist, Indiana I was here three hours and feel like it was only 30 minutes! Teacher, Tennessee |
