Why Zeno Matters to Me!
I love math! I love games! Both were an essential part of my childhood and now my children's lives. I'm lucky to have parents that played challenging card and math-oriented games with me, giving me the abilities and confidence that math is for me. Having serving as a Board member of Zeno for several years, I've seen that not all children are as lucky. For those without the same fortunes as me, there's Zeno! Our unique model of working with communities and families to bring math play and math identity to 3-5 year olds creates a lasting impact that we should all get behind.
There is no such thing as a life lived without math. Beyond grades and test scores, Zeno changes hearts and minds so children of all backgrounds know that they too can be a doer and lover of math. By starting early, making math fun, including families, and working with community-based partners, we are removing the barriers that families of color face in accessing early math tools and resources.
Today more families and providers are self-identifying as math people, specifically our surveys show twice as many families and providers are saying that they “strongly agree” that they identify as a math person as a result of their work with Zeno.
