Fire up those mental calculators! Prepare for Problem Solving! It’s MATH TIME when Rick Hartman’s School of Toy visits your school!

For more than 25 years, Rick has mesmerized K-8 audiences with “toyful” lessons in science, history, literature, invention and the arts. Now, this former classroom teacher turned madcap toy inventor pulls out all the stops in “The Toy that Math Built,” a performance brimming with number-crunching fun and excitement.

​

Students will love all the math-made contraptions—including a 10-foot-tall robot they control!—and teachers will appreciate the way Rick seamlessly integrates State and National Math Standards into a thoroughly entertaining presentation.
