Synopsis

Many different math curriculums are now used in elementary schools. Some schools even write their own. However, all these share a common approach to the teaching of math - emphasizing the importance of practical activities and the need to relate what is learned at school to its everyday application. This book is not linked to any particular curriculum but applies to all good mathematics taught in elementary schools. Much has changed in the way math has been taught over the years. "Parents' Guide to Your Child's Math" is designed to:

1) help parents understand the content of the "new" math now taught in elementary schools;
2) explain how each topic is approached and the reasons for teaching it in this way;
3) answer likely questions on each topic covered by the new math;
4) provide a wealth of suggestions for helping children at home which link with the math they are learning at school. This book is part of The Parent and Child Program, a carefully structured learning program written by practicing teachers and designed to work with varied school curriculums.
