I've always liked math throughout school but it did not necessarily come easily to me. I am also a mother of three children: ds almost 8 yrs old, ds 4.5 yrs. old, and dd 14 months old.
I was stuck with the worksheet ways of teaching my children as the core of their curriculum since I felt that was the only way to get the core elements of math taught to my children. Now I've included Math Whizz but my heart says that there are better ways than this. I am continually jumping around using various curriculums to maintain my children's interest in math.
I've been following the Natural Math group for awhile and I've included a few things into our schedule - math readers, a few games and Hands on Equations. I'm hoping that the great ideas that I get from actively participating in this group will help me instill the love of math and still have them get a solid foundation.
