Helping Your Child Learn Math Description

WITH ACTIVITIES FOR CHILDREN AGED 5 TO 13 "Why?" This is the question we parents are always trying to answer. It's good that children ask questions: that's the best way to learn. All children have two wonderful resources for learning -- imagination and curiosity. As a parent, you can awaken your children to the joy of learning by encouraging theirimagination and curiosity. 'Helping Your Child Learn math' is one in a series of books on different education topics intended to help you make the most of your child's natural curiosity. Teaching and learning are not mysteries that can only happen in school. They also happen when parents and children do simple things together. For instance, you and your child can: sort socks on laundry day -- sorting is a major function in math and science; cook a meal together -- cooking involves not only math and science but good health as well; tell and read each other stories -- storytelling is the basis for reading and writing (and a story about the past is also history); or play a game of hopscotch together -- playing physical games will help your child learn to count and start on a road to lifelong fitness. By doing things together, you will show that learning is fun and important. You will be encouraging your child to study, learn, and stay in school. This book will give you a short rundown on facts, but the biggest part of the book is made up of simple, fun activities for you and your child to do together. Your child may even beg you to do them. "The first teachers are the parents, both by example and conversation. But don't think of it as teaching. Think of it as fun." So, let's get started. I invite you to find an activity in this book and try it. Contents 1. Foreword 2. Introduction 3. The Basics 4. Important Things To Know 5. math in the Home 6. Picture Puzzle 9. More or Less 8.
