One of the primary goals at each MathTree camp is to make learning math fun! We believe that when your child is having fun and learning, they will want to keep doing math!
It All Adds Up To a Summer of Fun
Choose the right math camp experience by starting with the grade your child will enter in the fall.
Bean Counting 101
for children entering Grade 1
Campers use real beans and test tubes to develop counting skills, place value and the naming of numbers. They also explore odd and even numbers to discern patterns and develop number sense.
Bean Counting 201
for children entering Grade 2
Rising 2nd graders are guided through the essential regrouping process used in addition and subtraction, and gain a solid understanding of the underlying concept of place value. Real beans, test tubes, and literature are used to help your child grasp these foundational concepts.
Multiplication Matters

No flash cards! Campers use a set of proportionally-sized fact cards that engage them physically, verbally, and auditorily. Math games and manipulatives are incorporated into each day for an assortment of math activities and learning.
