[quote=Anonymous]Pre-math: lots of counting. Sorting coins. Small candies - nerds, smarties, m&ms - are excellent because they offer immediate rewards for getting math problems right. "Now you can eat two of them. How many are left?" Elementary Math: If you are lucky, your child's math textbook will be awful. If you are unlucky, you will live in Fairfax County and it will be nonexistent. In either case, I think it's easiest to get a decent textbook series and run a full curriculum at home, instead of trying to do just-in-time remediation. (If you're more of a slacker, get a few of Kumon's workbooks and have the kid do a few pages a day of their problem sets.) Anyway, for a full curriculum, I like Singapore Math US Ed., which is backed by a good "Home Instructors Guide", but there are quite a few decent alternatives.
