everyday math

Postby jslcbb » Tue Feb 20, 2007 8:52 pm

My daughter is currently in a public school that does everyday math. How difficult will it be to teach her the common sense way of doing regular multiplication and division the way I learned. I am going to start hsing her next year and am just curious on what grade level I should start her on in math, because she does not have the basic knowledge of multiplication and division that she should in 5th grade.

Personally I think both methods have stuff to offer and though we're heavier on old-fashioned techniques I've certainly used some activities and approaches that fall under the 'new'new math' umbrella.

Somewhere there's a rational middle ground that seeks to teach kids the way they learn rather then trumpet one method or another.
