Winning the Math Homework Challenge (eBook, ePUB)

Insights for Parents to See Math Differently

Beschreibung

If you've ever been stumped by your child's math homework, this is the book for you. Winning the Math Homework Challenge shares students' reasoning, thinking, and even misunderstandings about mathematics to provide you with the opportunity to see math through their eyes, including both the clarity and the confusion. Armed with this new sight, and therefore insight, parents will be able to effectively communicate with their child about math experiences. This book focuses more on the "why" behind math relationships, explained in plain English and through images that show mathematical relationships. The ability to recognize connections among math topics significantly reduces the confusion and frustration that can accompany math homework. By including more images and fewer formulas, readers - especially the visual-spatial learners - are better equipped to understand how math concepts connect to each other. Finding and understanding these connections will allow parents to find their own "math mojo" and to pass on that legacy to their child.
