Feel like a movie director!
Math comes in handy in every situation—even while directing movies! Let’s step up the fun-factor and learn about math in real-life situations.
Why math word problems?
Word problems are a great place to start because they involve so many different skills that apply to both school and later life.
In life we encounter real-life math problems every day that rarely come to us already organised into neat equations. It is up to us to dissect the situation, identify the relevant information and formulate it into a problem that we can solve.

I gave this game to my niece as a gift for Halloween and she loved it. She played with me and loved picking a movie, designing a set, picking the props and counting the math. I have bought her a lot of gifts in the last few years and think that Movie Director is one of the top 3. I highly recommend it!
