We try to feature the arithmetic-heavy options, but there are a lot that are great and don’t involve it at all. Hex, Dots and Boxes, and 1-2 Nim all jump to mind. (You can find the last two on our lesson library). If you want to invest in a board game, Yahtzee, Clever, Farkle, Blockus, Kingdomino and many more are excellent options.

I’m sure my dyscalculia-stricken kids will never even finish one round of this. They are rising 7th and 5th graders but their math is 3rd and 4th grade level. I’m a mathematician myself, it’s a real struggle.
