Help Build Stronger Thinkers Through Play!

Math Adventures brings playful math experiences into Wilder classrooms.

Once a week or once a month, two volunteers work together to guide half the class at a time. Students explore math in different ways: experimenting with ideas, trying different strategies, and solving problems together. Over time, volunteers get to know the students in their classroom — how they think, how they work together, and how their confidence and problem-solving skills grow.

You don’t need to be a math expert to volunteer — just bring your curiosity and enthusiasm!
