I love math! But my wife and three homeschooled boys, 10, 6 and 2, don't always share my enthusiasm. This book has helped me realize the seemingly limitless opportunities to help my children learn the importance of and enjoy math, and I never thought about how much math they are already doing! Math is, indeed, everywhere. In these pages I found easy to understand theory behind childhood development and also wonderfully practical and specific examples of math learning. I highly recommend this entertaining and useful guide for any adult who raises or teaches children. Whether you are a math lover or math hater, this book is for you! Anthony Cox, homeschool parent
Timely! Young people have lost the art of discovery and inquiry. They can simply 'ask Siri' or 'Google it'. Math is often one of the most feared courses for entering college students. In my opinion, this is for one or two reasons:
1. They have always felt that the language of numbers was confusing, especially when you start adding letters to equations
2. When they ask 'when will I ever need to use this again' the frustration for learning the language of math is greater than any suggested future usefulness
That youthful frustration can lead to lsV
