- Schoolhouse/Multiplication Rock and Multiplication Rock

- Beach Ball Game: As easy as writing math facts on a beach ball. A game of toss becomes a chance to learn a bit...before the ball play gets out of hand, which inevitably happens
- Marshmallow Gun: Build the gun, send the marshmallow out, measure the length of travel and note it. Make a change to the gun, then resend marshmallow, remeasure and note. Subtract distances. Fun game, lots of sugar and it got my son excited about math without even realizing he was doing it!
- MathO: Fun computer-based game that you can load to your iPhone. My kids love it though the music is annoying.
- All Dogs Have ADHD by Kathy Hoopmann
- All Kinds of Minds: A Young Student's Book About Learning Abilities and Learning Disorders by Mel Levine. A young student's book about learning abilities and learning disorders.
