[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Teacher here says just read, read, read, and play games that involve math calculation and problem solving, like Yahtzee. Being able to critically solve problems is the key. Have the child cook with a recipe and double it for math calculation. Buy a craft kit that involves measuring. Don't do workbooks. Do real life. The SOL math test was all about math problem solving. This is assuming your child has memorized their times tables. If not, practice them any way that works. If you really want math practice, get an account on Khan Academy. But READ!![/quote] +100 Strategy board games are really good math, problem-solving, and literacy practice too. My DS is younger (early elementary), but we’re loving Labyrinth and Dragonwood. [/quote]
