Testimonials/Reviews

“ Finding a math-based game that had instant student buy-in and was accessible to all levels and abilities in my class was unbelievable. It was fantastic to watch students joyfully exclaim about finding factors and want to take multiplication work home to practice so they can collect even more dragons next time. Not only does this game encourage multiplication fluency in an effortless way, but it also gives students a chance to build off of each other’s knowledge and gain confidence in math. I would strongly recommend it for any classroom! ”

Aja Geddes, Capitol Hill Elementary, MACC GRADE 4/5

“ Play is a powerful learning tool. Engaging students in activities they enjoy makes learning fun. Dragon Times includes a delightful set of 42 dragon/number cards created with common attributes to link sets of numbers (e.g. two-headed dragons are multiples of 10, square number dragons breathe fire). These cards can be used beyond learning number facts, for students to observe and discover characteristics shared by ‘number families’. The dragon designs are so engaging that one student said, “Let’s not do anything with the numbers until we’ve had time to examine and get to know these fantastic dragons!”

Barbara Johnson, MindStein Challenge Center Coquitlam, BC

“ My kids have always had trouble remembering multiplication tables. They love using Dragon Times to practice. I love that they pick up patterns from the tables and pictures as they memorize the facts. The art is beautiful and the game is fun. I never have to work to convince them to play! ”

Vicky Loh, Homeschooling mom
