Heads In, Hearts In: Math Activities

4-H's mission is to empower youth to reach their full potential, working and learning in partnership with caring adults. One goal to achieve that mission is to connect in-school learning with out-of-school-time opportunities that enhance learning. That's precisely the focus of Heads In, Hearts In: A Delivery Approach to Family Enrichment 4-H Programming. These resources encourage youth and families to use their minds (putting their "heads in") as a tool to expand their knowledge around variety of topic areas. By creating a shared educational experience, youth and their families will work, grow and learn together, putting their "hearts in" to the process.

Heads In, Hearts In: A Delivery Approach to Mindfulness Programming – Math Activities are designed to help Michigan State University Extension staff members to involve partners in facilitating a family enrichment program around the topic of math. This page includes the full math activity book containing all 16 math activities, the staff guide for tips for facilitating a family enrichment event and all 16 math activities available for download individually.
