To stop blocking coolmath in schools

The Issue

Cool Math Games has been around since 1997. Students at schools love to play games and increase many skills with this website. Cool math has educational games but also fun games. Sometimes after class, kid may be able to play games on their computer or Ipad if they finished all their work. But now they will not be able to. 

Who is impacted? The kids at school are impacted at this because when they want to have free time, they would like to play a game that is still educational. According to Google, it states that "Our games have a purpose beyond just plain entertainment -- and that's to enhance your brain by acting as not only entertaining games, but educational games as well. These educational games tend to disguise learning and skill improvement behind a playful atmosphere that's appealing to users of all ages." This proves that Cool math's games are fun but they still have some education it them.

What is at stake? This needs to change because kids need to take their minds off of work and have a little break between classes. According to Google, it explains that, "Cool Math can be used in lower grade levels to teach basic math skills. As students progress they can move forward without being held back or making other students feel like the are slow. Cool Math provides students the ability to master basic math skills." This proves that cool math is good for students and helps them master their basic math skills.

Why is now the time to act? This needs to happen now because kids need to have something to keep their mind off of work for just a few minutes. According to Google, it depicts, "Use our games to build skills like pattern recognition, logical reasoning, memory recall, strategy, and of course, math! Our games have no violence, no empty action, just a lot of challenges that will make you forget you're getting a mental workout. Our first site!" This explains that their games are good for kids to play when they need a break from some school work for a few minutes.
