[quote=Anonymous]EDM will help your child develop true number sense and flexible thinking--what real mathematicians have. Feel free to supplement with more traditional methods and anything that helps your child develop automaticity with math facts--EDM never says not to do this. My child had EDM through elementary, then switched over to more 'traditional' approaches. Never had supplementation and is soaring in math. It's a marathon, not a sprint. Sometimes I miss some of the exploration my child had with EDM. Math should not just be a slog or memorizing algorithms with no sense of 'why' they work. Let your child enjoy this time and supplement as needed.[/quote]
