Tips For Math  

Here are some new ways to learn your math facts and sharpen math skills.  Try these ideas out: 

*Start small:Using few flash cards lets you see when and where a learner has success.  Start with the easier facts and move up to the more difficult.  Student fact cards and/or wrap-sups will be sent home nightly and need to be returned daily. 

*Offer help and avoid struggle: If your child does not know an answer by the time you count to 4 slowly in your head, tell them the answer and have them repeat the entire math fact aloud to you.  

*Keep your sessions short: Repeating something three or four times in short and fun sessions gets better results than one long session. 

*Make it fun:Try some games with math facts or find an Internet site that has some fun math games. 

*Always end with success!!!!!
