MATH IS CRUCIAL TO KIDS
We've all been kids. We've been there. We all know that it can bring distress. But we know that mathematics is an integral part of life. As such it is crucial that we teach our children proper math.
Children may work harder and perhaps perform better if they can be shown the importance of math in everyday life. Rewarding them for learning and applying math skills can be pretty effective. When I was 4 or 5 years old... I remember memorizing the entire mulitplication table (until the 9th column) in like a week. The prize was a bike.

As I reached the equation expansion, I was almost going to fall off my chair! I remembered an old maths problem which someone shared with me long back. I thought I would point you to it. But it was already there, the very next one!
Very funny! I enjoyed it thoroughly!
So true! I never learned the importance of math till I reached college algebra and misearbly failed! i am ashamed to admit that I only memorized the entire multiplication table at that time! hehehe
Great hub!
I know with my daughter she does not learn math with traditional methods so public school was a let down in that subject for us. Luckily I knew this and supplemented at home and she did very well on that portion of the SAT when she took it recently.

Ouch. Yep. Ouch, again.
It's going to take a few decades, I'm thinking, to make up for the decline of education we have witnessed in the latter half of the twentieth century -- that is, if a concerted effort is made by everyone involved -- everyone.
Great hub, needful.
