Math
from page B7
impressed that
Arithmetickles was able to
teach students without them
even knowing that they were
learning.
Teacher Joy Truax
watched the show with her
first graders. She said she
thought Arithmetickles was
effective and plans to play
some of the games she saw
on stage in her classroom.
"Even watching him I got
some ideas, some things to
do in my classroom," said
Truax.
A grant from the R.J.
Reynolds Foundation
allowed Arithmetickles to
visit Easton, as well as
Latham and Old Town ele
mentary schools. Easton
Principal Steve Flora said
without the grant, the school
likely would have been
unable to bring in
Arithmetickles. Easton, an
equity plus school with
mostly African American
and Hispanic students, has to
watch its budget closely.

Flora said he jumped at the
chance to get a math assem
bly that was already paid for
at his school.
"Anytime we make aca
demic learning fun for chil
dren that's a good thing,"
said Flora.
Bendor, who has a back
ground as an improvisational
performer, said when
Arithmetickles was started,
there were few educational
shows featuring math. He
knew why that was.
"First of aH, it's scary,"
said Bendor of math, a sub
ject even he finds intimidat
ing sometimes.
Bendor added that, unlike
educational assemblies on
science or history, math was
also hard to come up with
visuals for. The show's only
visuals are Bendor's bright
red shirt decorated with
numbers and the giant tic tac
toe board. But the interaction
between Bendor and the stu
dents seemed to be more
Flora
than enough to captivate the
young audience. He said one
of the show's draws is that it
lets students receive cheers
for doing well in math.
"I don't know if in the
regular daytime, if those
math students or the better
students who know math, get
the applause anytime during
the school year, but this is
their opportunity to shine,"
said Bendor.
