[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]:roll: Don't you people ever get tired of whining the same things every day?[/quote]I am OP. While I do whine on occasion, especially when I am overstretched, I never whined about this before. I was just amazed to hear of another story of "math lesson gone wrong" from my kid. My kid tells me in detail, how the lesson went, and I just can not believe the time they waste. And also, I am wondering, what they think about school and teachers when this is a regular thing? [b]Likely a problem with the new math and not the teacher[/b], but really, why teach math like this? What is the benefit?[/quote] Why do you say this? I think it's likely a problem that the teacher has not had enough training. Also, why teach math like this? Because the way we've been teaching math does not work. http://www.nytimes.com/2014/07/27/magazine/why-do-americans-stink-at-math.html?_r=0[/quote]
