**Description: "**Figure This Mathematical challenges for families provide interesting math challenges that middle-school students can do at home with their families." Figure this is a website created to help get families involved in their children's math education. This website was created along side the NCTM as well as other foundations to create a website that challenges students with activities that they can do home with their families. Figure this not only provides information and activities for teachers and students, but also for family remembers. Figure this realizes that parents and teachers need to team up to help their students achieve their maximum potential. This website could be used in the classroom as a tool for teachers to show parents how to help their students. Using an open house setting to give a mini-class on how to use this website would be very helpful in aiding students in their mathematics learning.
