HOW CAN YOU HELP YOUR CHILD IN MATH?

Every child wants to play in the afternoon and get rid of the cares of the school

day. However if a parent provides a place and a time for learning or for going over

homework, they will be surprised to find that their child quickly adapts and will

actually look forward each day to the experience.

Communication is important. By becoming enthusiastic and involved, you are sending

your child a positive message about learning. For children it is more fun to do any

activity when parents or older sisters and brothers are keen to take part.

Book 5 at this level is a complete beginner math book. It

All children learn at different rates. The important thing is to remain positive and

praise what has been done right. Use other examples and talk about what has gone

wrong. Rub out their answers then let them try that page again. Practice and

repetition will lead to increased confidence in math..

If a child works for 15 minutes a day, they are completing nearly 2 hours extra

work per week and over 90 hours per year. This is extra to their regular school

lessons and is setting a pattern for later years.

Most children will need to be encouraged to start an activity, however do not force

them. Help them start by reading through and explaining any instructions. Reward

their efforts with more encouragement. Above all, instill an enjoyment of math and

its challenges. Success and confidence in any subject inevitably lead to an

enjoyment of learning. We hope that you and your child have fun as they learn with

the Mighty Math series. At Mahobe, we certainly had fun putting it all together

for you.

HOW CAN I MOTIVATE MY CHILD?

WHAT HAPPENS IF MY CHILD DOES NOT GET THE ANSWERS CORRECT?

HOW LONG SHOULD MY CHILD SPEND ON MATHEMATICS?

teaches how to count and

write the numbers from 1 to 10. It then introduces arithmetic and all the

arithmetic operations of addition, subtraction, multiplication (times) and division.

Always try to reinforce the concepts found in this book. For example at the

supermarket ask your child to get 2 cartons of milk and 3 loaves of bread. Ask how

many items that is altogether. Before getting a treat get them to count from 20 to

0 backwards. Ask them to count all the shopping to see if you can go to the 12 or

less items counter. There are lots of math examples in everyday activities.
