Games provide learners with chances to delve into essential number
concepts, including the counting sequence, one-to-one correspondence, and computation strategies. Immersive mathematical games also motivate learners to investigate number combinations, place values, patterns, and other significant mathematical ideas. Moreover, they offer students opportunities to enhance their comprehension and logical thinking in mathematics. The TFA game, designed for two players, incorporates additional skills to benefit learners.
