Tools To Help Your Children Learn Math: Strategies, Curiosities, And Stories To Make Math Fun For Parents And Children (Problem Solving in Mathematics and Beyond)

Parents need to take an ever-increasing role in their child's learning experience. However, what to do and how to do it is often not prescribed to the parents. This book offers a wide variety of aspects related to the parent's role as a support to their child's learning of mathematics, and above all appreciation for the subject. The uniqueness of this book is that we provide the parent the information they need about how mathematics is taught in today's early grades. We then provide a plethora of ideas that can motivate children with information beyond that which is taught in the classroom.
