"Math is Buildings" is a program that uses buildings and architecture to make math interesting to learn. I have done extensive tutoring with socio-economically disadvantaged children and I have discovered that math is often difficult for them, with simple concepts seeming impossible for them to grasp. Thus I created this program to make learning math interesting to kids. I have integrated simple math concepts with the steps used in constructing buildings. Because the steps have been itemized clearly, this program is ideal for use by volunteers helping elementary school-aged children with math.
