Get Out The Math Tiles!

One thing my little boys love to do is get out the math shape tiles.

I have a bucket from Nasco of Plastic Pattern Blocks that we got, long ago.

Yesterday, for the severalth day in a row, they boys wanted the math tiles out.

Do you think they are learning all kinds of good mathematical concepts using the tiles to make Bionicle Adventures?

Here's the primary builders - note how in this picture the Visorak "caughted the disc in his claw!":

Is this how math works in other homeschooled homes?
