Most children enjoy adventure games.
There are some good educational ones available on CD ROM for computers, but these have limited classroom use because they only involve a few children at a time. Obviously it would need to be teacher lead, rather than computer controlled. Alan Parr, an enterprising teacher in England, has developed a series of printed resources for those who teach mathematics to children aged about 7 to 14 years. For a small fee you can receive a booklet containing a story that links together a series of problem solving activities. In the story the children move from room to room, and as they go they must solve a mathematical puzzle or problem.
